Nevermore - The Sanity Assassin (Lyrics) скачать видео бесплатно

Lyrics:

See the man of hungry mind

Never had a dream to call his own

His sin in form of thought

He lived to milk the minds of the blind

To rule the sea of imagination

And the sanity assassin

Is coming down to steal your mind

So he takes an innocent's vision

The blind lead the blind, they say

Meet the sanity assassin

A trick of mind or the devil's whim

On the way to tomorrow's dream

He's fading away

See the man with the empty soul

Never had a face or will of his own

So he took another's pride

And he made a mask of faults

Defensive anger and false emotion

And the sanity assassin

Is coming down in a stream of black

So he takes what he cannot live

The black leads the blind astray

Meet the sanity assassin

A trick of mind or the devil's whim

On the way to tomorrow's dream

He's fading away

Sing your sweet poison, stealer of dreams

Bleed your sweet anguish and the form of dreams are born

Don't be afraid to dream outside the lines

Don't be afraid of painting pictures within your mind

Don't be afraid, your path is not of sorrow

Don't be afraid, dreams are immortal

Rise in the coming tide

Wave after wave of sleep crushing down

Hopes of the weakened and knowing

Awash in the undertow, falling away

Listen as the tale begins to now unweave

The will of strong mind he'll never deceive

I speak the words to lay me down, I am ever strong

Against the all-knowing thief of imagination

Dreams are immortal

Nevermore The Sanity Assassin track #3 of the album Nevermore released February 14th through Century Media Records

Nevermore is the eponymous debut album by Seattle progressive metal band Nevermore. Released in 1995 under Century Media, it was singer Warrel Dane and bassist Jim Sheppard's first release after departing from their previous band, Sanctuary, in 1994. Having recruited drummer Van Williams and former Sanctuary touring guitarist Jeff Loomis, they formed the band Nevermore and began anew.

This was Nevermore's first and only album to feature original drummer Mark Arrington. Despite not being credited as the drummer on the album, he did play on half of the tracks.

A music video was produced for the song "What Tomorrow Knows." It would also be the sole track from Nevermore to be featured on Manifesto of Nevermore, the band's 2009 greatest hits
