Whiplash - Voice of Sanity lyrics

There's a scream at midnight Or a child who's time has come With a beauty so fresh and new Just twenty years she'd just begun Now the hour is coming strong Only to crush the innocent ones Crimes of pa**ion and pleasure The reasons for what is done [Pre-Chorus] Hear it echo through the stages Voice of Sanity [Chorus] As its flowing through your mind Let it bring you pain Rivers turning blood red Let it drain your brain Looking from the hindsight Of a world no longer strong Thinking you are protected You don't realize your sadly wrong You can walk the straight line But that straight line will be gone The voice is always watching And soon you will sing its sweet song [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] As you see the new dawn And praise the safety of lighted day Just like the young child We must all have a price to pay And if we're all mad Sanity is for who to say When the voice calls us We must all heed and come out to play [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus]
