Rules and Schemes

I've fallen in
The well of emptiness
But at least I'm dry
Not dead just yet
I've been praying for rain
But the sun keeps shining
I've been lost in the dust
It's going to settle soon
In any event it's a slump I can handle
I turn on my TV see gods playing devils
Just need to connect get back in the stream
Pick up the tools I see the rules and schemes

I stumbled upon
A word hotter than sex
I think it's confusion
I must put it to the test
If all roads are leading
To who judges who is it you
Well best keep on turning
You know I'm slipping the noose
In any respect there's a path I can travel
Lots of good people enjoying the angle
We just need to connect get back in the stream
Pick up the tools see the rules and schemes

Every mind that dreams
Up on the silver screen
Every fool that screams
Could break the rules and schemes

It's only words
