Testo Cannibals

When he grew up, the doors were locked
And no one would ever know
Why would only behind those wooden walls
The place that he called home

The quiet type, tainted eyes
They gave for being kind
Most aren't when he'll never speak his mind To say, "I watch the days go by"

Keep the cannibals away from me
Keep the cannibals away (x2)

Come to play, someone say
From down behind the crowd
Begging through the arrogance
And (?) between the clouds

He found his love in an empty cup
He's worth on his own (?)
Everybody's out to get a cut
A bite of shameless and polite
Keep the cannibals away from me
Keep the cannibals away (x2)

Why should I roll up my sleeves
For you to take it all from me?
I'll say it clear
There's nothing for you here

Oh, I should hide on my knees
For you to shake the rocking trees
I've heard it all
That double talk, that smile, just wipe it off

Keep the cannibals away from me
Keep the cannibals away (x3)

Keep them away, keep them away
Keep them away, keep them away
