Once I believed in endless sorrow; once you cured me of that pain
Once I lost the combination in a quagmire deep in my brain

I'm on a mission, baby
I've got the angels looking both ways for me
I want the hidden meanings quickly revealed
I'm on a mission, baby

There was a time when I thought that we had all the answers wrong
Now there are patterns emerging that may have been there all along

I'm on a mission, baby
I've got the angels looking both ways for me
I want the hidden meanings quickly revealed
I'm on a mission, baby

I sat upon the couch for years
explored my mind and cried the tears
Searched for the peaceful life
Got therapeutically sound advice
This might hurt you, it won't hurt me
You can't stop me because of my free will
If ever called on for my life of sin
I can always blame the child within

I'm on a mission, baby
I've got the angels looking both ways for me
I want the hidden meanings quickly revealed
I'm on a mission, baby
