SCHIZOPHRENIA
by Mark Heard.

The tears still fall
The birds still sing
And life is bittersweet
With a schizophrenic ring
The sun still shines
The darkness still falls
We must see both
If we see them at all

SCHIZOPHRENIA
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
MAN FROM DUST TO DUST
THE BEST AMONG THE WORST
SCHIZOPHRENIA
GAZING ON THE STARS
AND WALKING IN THE DUST
SCHIZOPHRENIA

So much to love
So much to hate
So much to represent
With chalk and slate
We see the expression
Of the original face
And the mask that hides it
We're a schizophrenic race

CHORUS

The one-eyed man
Still has one good eye
Blind man must have something
He can be thankful for
And the sweetest child
Still carries scars
From the sncient collapse
In the falling of stars

CHORUS

From Mosaics
