The Healer

I'll take from the rich and then I'll take from the poor
I'm never happy; I'm never happy until I've taken all the more
Let Damocles come back!
And drop his sword upon my head
I'll get right up again; right up again and dance with the dead

Don't try to leave my bloodstained arena
You may get lost in this circus of fools
And I'll be there when you're thrown - to the wolves!

I am the Healer: I lead the people here with science and hope
I am the Healer: with a flash of my hands
I'll throw you both ends of the rope
I'm dealing fate with a smile and a sugar pill
Don't try to turn; don't try to fight against my will

I can taste the poison
I can touch the fear inside
I can taste the corruption
I an touch the fear inside

"Oh physician" I hear you cry
"Why don't you heal thyself?"
But your dependence, but your addiction
Is the secret of my health

Don't try to leave this bloodstained arena
You may not wish to live by my rules
But I'll be there when you're thrown........

Don't try to leave my bloodstained arena
You may get lost in this circus of fools
And I'll be there when you're thrown - to the wolves!

I am the Healer: I lead the people here with science and hope
I am the Healer: with a flash of my hands
I'll throw you both ends of the rope
I'm dealing fate with a smile and a sugar pill
Don't try to turn; don't try to fight against my will

I am the Healer: I lead the people here with science and hope
I am the Healer: with a flash of my hands
I'll throw you both ends of the rope
I'm dealing fate with a smile and a sugar pill
Don't try to turn; don't try to fight against my will

I can taste the poison
I can touch the fear inside
I can taste the corruption
I an touch the fear inside

I can taste the poison
I can touch the fear inside
