Arena - Painted Man lyrics

I am the painted man

With a frown on my face

And a language you don't understand

A wild refugee

That is all you people can see

I am the painted man

With a smile on my lips

And a living tattoo on my hand

That's no guarantee

Of the truth you people can see

Why - With poison so strong in our hearts

And the world torn apart

Why - when our actions bring nothing but pain

Can't you see that we're painted the same?

I am the painted man

With bile in my veins

From a dark and sinister plan

Blind and deceived

That is all you people believe

I am the painted man

No thought for the world

I was here when the nightmare began

Wrongly conceived

That is all you people believe

Why - With poison so strong in our hearts

And the world torn apart

Why - when our actions bring nothing but pain

Can't you see that we're painted the same?

Come down from your ivory towers

Corruption devours us all

Come down from your ivory towers

The hunger devours us all
