3rd Eye

Using a special code he accessed his mind
In search of the reason why
In passion and fashion, he began traveling time
Third eye, third eye, third eye

The serpent approves
Then appears between Adam's thighs
And he tries to release upon Eve the nectar
The injector tries
He tries, he tries, he tries

So abduction complete
All stand on their feet
Look at one another and cry
What have we done?
Could this be the fun
On the dotted line for which I did sign?

I resign from the notion
Because yours was the potion
That I'm supposed to die for
I resign

In self-pity so dark
This shitty and stark
Realization is all that will soothe
Ultimately the only one
That can save you is you
Your God is inside and for that God you will do
Whatever it takes
If nothing else is true
The only one that can save you is you, yeah
