I've got a painters eye
 
 And a skilled musicians ears
 
 And I'm silent - in 7 languages
 
 And I've got all my family's fears...
 
 What lives inside you?
 
 Yeah, what stuffs your skin??
 
 - Someone elses memory..
 
 How come I never hear what I wanna hear
 
 How come I never see what I wanna see...
 
 The choice is small If there's choice at all
 
 But I'm holding on as if I'm going to fall
 
 Now I know how it feels
 
 - To be ragged and wild
 
 -- Whipped like a stepchild
 
 Feel the soulbender
 
 Fear's knocking at your skin
 
 Feel the soulbender
 
 Just to see if any soul is in..
 
  
  Whether one want them to or not
 
 So far between a while well spent
 
 And the time spent keepin' up...
 
 Make one devoted
 
 And settle like a bird
 
 Forgive and try not to hurt
 
 Don't take your garbage
 
 - Anywhere but out..
 
 Before the pup in your heart
 
 - Becomes a dog in your mind
 
 And it's licking my brains...
 
 Sucking reason out
 
 It will be cooking my head
 
 With the lid on tight
 
 You know how it feels:
 
 - 'Till I'm ragged and wild
 
 Whipped like a stepchild
 
 Feel the soulbender - Fear's knocking at your skin
 
 Feel the soulbender - Just to see if any soul is in..
 
 Feel the soulbender - Fear's knocking at your skin
 
 Feel the soulbender - Bend you - Break you..
  
 
 With empty eyes; Blank, like two wet stones
 
 In search for a home; In search for a soul
 
 Handed down on the family network
 
 Learning how it works... - To be a jerk..
 
 Feel the soulbender...
