I fell in love with the witch doctor The first day I laid eyes on her I fell upon the decision that science and religion were not for me In the end, they seem equally wishy washy And the witch doctor had taught me spirituality “Believe what you feel” she said, then anything may be true This creates a reality that is totally up to you Alluring is this sense of choice and grandeur But it creates a slave who is his own master When it is to simple chemicals in the brain that you pander; I fell in love with the lie, that what you feel is what you know I fell in love with idea that there may be choice in this violent ebb and flow But as the cycles continue I see my agency grow less and less As the world tosses both I and the witchdoctor in a frenzied pirouette

I Fell in Love with the Witch Doctor
I fell in love with the witch doctor The first day I laid eyes on her I fell upon the decision that science and religion were not for me In the end, they seem equally wishy washy And the witch doctor had taught me spirituality “Believe what you feel” she said, then anything may be true This creates a reality that is totally up to you Alluring is this sense of choice and grandeur But it creates a slave who is his own master When it is to simple chemicals in the brain that you pander; I fell in love with the lie, that what you feel is what you know I fell in love with idea that there may be choice in this violent ebb and flow But as the cycles continue I see my agency grow less and less As the world tosses both I and the witchdoctor in a frenzied pirouette
