Maniacal Renderings - Jon Oliva's Pain

I don’t see things quite the same

Pictures inside my brain

Twisted visions they get scattered

I just move further away

From life’s reality

Like a painting that scarred and tattered

Can you feel me deeply breathing in your dreams where

I show you pictures only you and I can see

I’m just paving the way

I’m in total control

I don’t hear what you say

I am running the show

I know soon you’ll awake

But before I go

I want to have a part of you to take with me

Maniacal renderings of

Twisted visions showing hell

Maniacal renderings of

Twisted visions showing hell

I just wanna touch you all

And smile as I watch you fall

I just don’t know right from wrong

Or where these memories belong

They are specters shadow dancing

I tell it all black and white

I use no colors to hide

All the things that are grey and blackened

Can you feel me deeply breathing in your dreams where

I show you pictures only you and I can see

I’m just paving the way

I’m in total control

I don’t hear what you say

I’m still running the show

I know soon you’ll awake

But before I go

I want to have a part of you to take with me

Maniacal renderings of

Twisted visions showing hell

Maniacal renderings of

Twisted visions showing hell

I just wanna touch you all

Smile as I watch you fall

Now I will soon set you free

No more will you have to see

These visions that we have offered

Now you may choose your own way

Be sure you never betray

The pictured lives we have ordered

Can you feel me deeply breathing in your dreams where

I show you pictures only you and I can see

I’m just paving the way

I’m in total control

I don’t hear what you say

I’m still running the show

I know soon you’ll awake

But before I go

I want to have a part of you to take with me

Maniacal renderings of

Twisted visions showing hell

Maniacal renderings of

Twisted visions showing hell

I just wanna touch you all

And smile as I watch you fall
