Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Deaf, dumb, and blind boy
He's in a quiet vibration land
Strange as it seems
His musical dreams ain't quite so bad
[Verse 2]
Ten years old
With thoughts as bold as thoughts can be
Loving life
And becoming wise in simplicity
[Chorus]
Sickness will surely take the mind
Where minds can't usually go
Come on the amazing journey
And learn all you should know
[Verse 3]
A vague haze of delirium creeps up on me
All at once, a tall stranger I suddenly see
He's dressed in a silver-sparked glittering gown
And his golden beard flows nearly down to the ground
[Verse 4]
Nothing to say
Nothing to hear
Nothing to see
Each sensation makes a note my symphony
[Chorus]
Sickness will surely take the mind
Where minds can't usually go
Come on the amazing journey
And learn all you should know
[Verse 5]
His eyes are the eyes that transmit all they know
Sparkle warm crystalline glances to show
He's your leader, he's your guide
On the amazing journey together you'll ride
