Somethin' that makes me Think about it all the time Always just behind there haunting messin’up my mind Something that takes me To the place I lose control Where there is no one to hold me Or own my soul I can get crazy Travelin’ round too fast to see Hiding just beyond perception that would be me It’s how it makes me Shakes and tingles thru my spine Playin’ my life by rolling dice Tears to my eyes
Perception (shining on me) Affection (holding on to me) Obsession (I just can’t break free) Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Infatuation (I just can’t break free)
It’s not the first time Workin’ my way against the grain Everyday dreaming an everlasting stream It’s not the last time We all need a second chance Playin’ life with bishops and knights On goes the line Why are they trippin’ I’m just an average man One alone… sometimes right sometimes doin’ wrong Wherever the four winds May blow me… I will go Only under influence
Perception (shining on me) Affection (holding on to me) Obsession (I just can’t break free) Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Infatuation (I just can’t break free)
