Fear Is The Mind Killer

How was I supposed to know that my stone was gonna roll way down in the valley
How was I supposed to see all the fishes in the sea swimmed on without me
I was just a little stone tt the bottom of the sea
The waves were crashing over me

How am I supposed to keep all of my sheep when the hill's so steep?
How was I supposed to know that my soul was gonna roll
Way down in the valley to the ocean?
Floatin' along with the strangest notion

Take off my old clothes and never put 'em back on

Fear is the mind-, is the mind-killer
Leaves you with nowhere to run to
Plants the seed of hate within you
Fear, fear

How was I supposed to know I was gonna fall in love
With 'Ole Takanaka?
Mowin' my lawn on a Sunday, praying for the daisy's forgiveness
And the rain to come onto the ocean

How's the surf down there in Japan, good man?
Is it open?
I wanna be specifically Pacific, but I'm Arkansan
You know I must, I gotta trust this lust for the ocean
Pick it

Fear is the mind-, is the mind-killer
Leaves you with nowhere to run to
Plants the seed of hate within you
Fear, fear

How was I supposed to know that my soul was gonna grow into a big soul flower?
The only thing I'd ever need was a big hot sun and the occasional shower
How was I supposed to know that my stone was gonna roll way down in the valley
How was I supposed to see all the fishes in the sea swimmed on without me to the ocean
Floatin' along with the strangest notion

Fear
Is the mind, is the mind killer
Killer, killer the real dealer
Fear
Fear
Is the mind-, is the mind killer
Leaves you with nowhere to run to
Plants the seed of hate within you

Fear, fear
