The Voodoo Doll

Was the Deius first personified
Or a man first made a Deity
Did I have to know that mankind lied?
Just as all seemed fine and I'm pain free
Jab another pin, jab another pin in me

Is love the sole aim of our lives
The goal of all humanity
Is it just I to whom this seems contrived?
Just as all seemed fine and I'm pain free
Jab another pin, jab another pin in me

What happens once a man lies perished
What proof exists of the soul's divinity
Why must I outgrow everything I've cherished?
Just as all seemed fine and I'm pain free
Jab another pin, jab another pin in me

Who flies with me those airy heights
Where none but the strongest eyes can see
Must there be a passenger to every flight?
Just as all seemed fine and I'm pain free
Jab another pin, jab another pin in me

They tell us of man's fall from grace
When he ate off the Forbidden tree;
What? Ignorance to take honour's place?
Just as all seemed fine and I'm pain free
Jab another pin, jab another pin in me

Give me the serpent, give me the fruit
Give me wisdom, Give me the tree
What care I if you don't follow suit?
Hark, human! I am the picture of serenity
Do your pins the honour, jab another one in me
