THE OLD DOG BARKIN’ IS YOU

OLD DOG CREEPIN’ ROUND AT NIGHT,

BARKIN’ NEATH A FULL MOON BRIGHT,

IT’S ENOUGH TO STOP YOUR HEART WITH FRIGHT,

AND TURN YOUR WARM BLOOD COLD.

TAKIN’ PILLS TO CALM YOU DOWN,

NO WHERE IS YOUR POWER FOUND,

NO IMPACT ON THE WORLD AROUND,

YOUR ENERGY WON’T FLOW.

KEEP YOUR COOL MAN.

STAND YOUR GROUND, SON.

COUNT TO TEN MAN.

KEEP YOUR HEAD ON.

THE OLD DOG BARKIN’ IS YOU.

THE OLD DOG BARKIN’ IS YOU.

DEEP INSIDE YOUR HEART AND SOUL,

IS SOMETHING THERE THAT WON’T LET GO.

CAN’T TRUST YOURSELF AND YOU DON’T KNOW,

WHAT’S REALLY GOIN’ ON.

YOUR MIND PROJECTS A GOTHIC SCENE,

YOU’RE LIVING IN THE DARKEST DREAM,

AND YOU DON’T DARE TO EVEN SCREAM,

THEY MIGHT TAKE YOU AWAY.

THE RED ROSE IS LOST IN TIME,

YOU CAN’T MAKE THE CLOCK UNWIND.

THE QUESTIONS IN YOUR USELESS MIND,

THE ANSWERS IN YOUR SOUL.

FIND YOURSELF OR TAKE A TRIP.

SOMEHOW YOU MUST GET A GRIP.

RELEASE YOURSELF OR YOU MIGHT SLIP,

AND SPIN OUT OF CONTROL.
