Lyin' awake in my bed When I heard voices in my head Angry voices of the dead They were in my mind In my head the voices would stay I remember when they took ol' John away Men in white coats came into his home An' gave him a jacket of his own Cold eyes In my body Gonna swell my brain Cold eyes Makin' me think That I'm goin' Insane Was it evil they bestowed Or from the heavens were they from the lord This I tell you I do not know They didn't give me a sign Terrified in my bed Would they join me as the living dead
Would they have me join them instead Well I don't wanna die Cold eyes In my body Gonna swell my brain Cold eyes Makin' me think That I'm goin' Insane I could not keep it bottled in my brain They all that thought I'd gone insane Men in white coats came into my home And gave me a jacket of my own Cold eyes In my body Gonna swell my brain Cold eyes Makin' me think That I'm goin' Insane Cold eyes In my body Gonna swell my brain Cold eyes Makin' me think That I'm goin' Insane
