about

Based on a true about a guy let out of an institution for the criminally insane and the way society conspired to send him back again!

lyrics

They say he killed his folks
Because he wanted to
There was nothing else for him to do
They locked him up for twenty long years

They said he was completely insane
And then they proved it
Implants in his brain
Electricity is good for you
Makes us feel at ease

He's over there
Staring at the sun
His eyes wild and grey
Ignoring everyone

He's over there
What's he become
Another homeless lunatic
Staring at the sun

Come the day
They let him out
Into a world he'd only heard about
The noise of traffic
Hurt his head
People turned away
As if he were dead

The world passes by
But does not mean a thing
Take him back to the place that's home to him
We don't wanna see his kind round here no more
We want to live like shadows again
We want to live like shadows
We want to live like shadows again
We want to live

This CD is really outstanding. Very eclectic as the title implies BUT the album still seems to flow well. Great songwriting, excellent song structure, atmospheric synths, nice guitar, very good vocals. This CD really lived up to my expectations. Paul Pokorski
