The Essential Ozzy Osbourne lyrics

Looking to the mirror
From the other side
Seeing her reflection
And it blows my mind
Trying to deny it
But damage is done
I'll just run as always
But the race is run

You've got to tell me it's over now
I'm trapped inside of a dream
The crushing weight on my shoulders now
Is bearing down and it seems
There's just no easy way out
No easy way out

Read the daily fiction, Superman is dead

Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometime

After all there's only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after time

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

Your thoughts are compromising
Self-centered patronizing
Your image supersedes your soul

You find me mystifying
Subhuman so annoying
You can't have me under control

You think you live forever
You don't find that profound
You won't think you're so clever
When you hear thunder underground
All right now

Your morbid fear of losing
Destroys the lives you're using

I'm not the kind of person you think I am
I'm not the anti-christ or the iron man
I have a vision that I just can't control
I feel I've lost my spirit and sold my soul
Got no control

I try to entertain you the best I can
I wish I'd started walking before I ran
But I still love the feeling I get from you
I hope you'll never stop cause it gets me through yeah
It gets me through yeah

I always knew what I wanted to be
I knew for sure, I knew for sure
Always knew it was them or me
I wanted more, more and more

It's all right, it's okay
None of them people gonna take it away
Cause they don't know, like I know
And I can't stop 'cause it drives them crazy
It drives them crazy, 'cause I won't be cool
It's too late baby

It's the same old desire

Time after time
I guess that love is blind
I couldn't read your mind
Line after line

Line after line
It was written in your eyes
I guess it's no surprise
Time after time

I can hear them whispering
Shadows in the rain
Thinking how it might have been
Time after time
Line after line you broke me

Day after day
I watched love fade away
I wanted love to stay
Day after day

Standing at the crossroads, world spinning round and round
Know which way I'm going, you can't bring me down
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in
I Don't Wanna Chaneg The World
I don't want the world to change me
I Don't Wanna Chaneg The World
I don't want the world to change me
Tell me I'm a sinner I got news for you

There are no unlockable doors
There are no unwinnable wars
There are no unrightable wrongs
Or unsingable songs
There are no unbeatable odds
There are no believable Gods
There are no unnameable names
Shall I say it agin? Yeah
There are no impossible dreams
There are no invisible seams
Each night when the day is through
I don't ask much

I just want you
I just want you

Voices, A thousand thousand voices
Whispering, the time has passed for choices
Golden days are passing over, Yeah

I can't seem to see you baby
Although my eyes are open wide
But I know I'll see you once more
When I see you, I'll see you on the other side
Yes I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side

Leaving, I hate to see you cry
Grieving, I hate to say goodbye

Times have changed and times are strange
Here I come but I ain't the same
Mama, I'm coming home

Times gone by seem to be
You could have been a better friend to me
Mama, I'm coming home

Took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes

You made me cry, told me lies
But, I can't stand to say goodbye

The light in the window is a crack in the sky
A stairway to darkness in the blink of an eye
A levee of tears to learn she'll never be coming back
The man in the dark will bring another attack

Your momma told you that you're not supposed to
talk to strangers
Look in the mirror tell me do you think your life's
in danger here ya

No more tears

Another day passes as the night closes in

I was looking back on my life
And all the things I've done to me
I'm still looking for the answers
I'm still searching for the key

The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won't leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?
The road to nowhere leads to me

Through all the happiness and sorrow
I guess I'd do it all again
Live for today and not tomorrow

On his way to dinner when
It took him by surprise
And with one pull of the trigger
He would vanish overnight

Dancing by the roadside
Holding on for dear life
Then a gun from out of nowhere
Made a widow of his wife

I don't mind single file down
The runway
Feelin' fine and I'll see you
My friend
Over and Over again

Who can we get on the case?
We need Perry Mason

I'm looking for a miracle man
That tells me no lies
I'm looking for a miracle man
Who's not in disguise
I don't know where he'll come from
And I don't know where he's been
But it's not our Jimmy Sinner
Because he's so obscene
Miracle man
Got busted
Today I saw a miracle man
On TV cryin'
Such a hypocritical man
Born again dying
He don't know where he's going

Well, I know I could be just another stranger
But to you I guess I'm just another fool
And you swear you like to live your life in danger
Then you hide behind a wall of silly rules
Nobody thinks the way I do
I guess that nobody dares
Your head's so full of things
So set your mind free of them
I'm breaking the rules

Did you know that in the truth there's nothing stranger?

Over the mountain, take me across the sky
Something in my vision, something deep inside
Where did I wander, where d'ya think I wandered to
I've seen life's magic astral plane I travel through

I heard them tell me that this land of dreams was now
I told them I had ridden shooting stars
And said I'd show them how

Over and over, always tried to get away

Screaming at the window
Watch me die another day
Hopeless situation
Endless price I have to pay

Sanity now it's beyond me
There's no choice

Diary of a madman
Walk the line again today
Entries of confusion
Dear diary, I'm here to stay

Manic depression befriends me
Hear his voice
Sanity now it's beyond me
There's no choice

A sickened mind and spirit
The mirror tells me lies

How many times can you put me down
'Till in your heart you realize
If you chose to criticise you choose your enemies

Everything that I say and do
In your eyes is always wrong
Tell me where do I belong in a sick society

Your're no different to me, yeah
Your're no different, no different to me

Look at yourself instead o' looking at me
With accusation in your eyes

Crazy...babies...
Crazy babies never say die
Born to live on a permanent high
Flying high above the world below
They'd better come down soon or everyone will know
Nobody's gonna change them, change them
They've gone over the top
Nobody's gonna tame them, tame them
They're never gonna stop
Walk that walk
Talk that talk
Crazy...babies...
When they were born they were born to be wild

The introduction to his heartache began as a child
So it's no wonder that he grew up to be so wild
So he protected his feelings in walls he imagined
But castles crumbled exposing the frightened child
Fire in the sky
Can't you see that all my castles are burning
Fire in the sky
Won't you help me now my castles are burning
In solitude he couldn't deal with his own existence

Yesterday has been and gone
Tomorrow will I find the sun
or will it rain
Everybody's having fun
Except me I'm the lonely one
I live in shame

(chorus)
I said goodbye to romance, yeah
Goodbye to friends, I tell you
Goodbye to all the past
I guess that we'll meet,
we'll meet in the end
I've been the king, I've been the clown
now broken wings can't hold me down
I'm free again

Oh no, oh no
Here we go now
Oh no, oh now
Here we go now

Got a crazy feeling I don't understand
'Gotta get away from here
Feelin' like I should have kept my feet on the ground
Waitin' for the sun to appear

Mamma's gonna worry
I've been a bad, bad boy
No use sayin' sorry
It's something that I enjoy

'Cause you can't see what my eyes see
(I can see it, I can see it)
And you can't be inside of me

Screams break the silence
Waking from the dead of night
Vengence is boiling
He's returned to kill the light
Then when he's found who he's looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him

Bark at the moon
Ha ha ha ha ha...

Years spent in torment
Buried in a nameless grave
Now he has risen
Miracles would have to save
Those that the beast is looking for
Listen in awe and you'll hear him

They couldn't see what I thought would be so obvious
They hide behind the laws they made for all of us
The ministry of truth that deals with pretense
The ministry of peace that sits on defense
I'm washing my hands of what they're trying to do
It's for me, it's for me, it's for you, it's for you

I'm just a rock 'n' roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They say I worship the devil

Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control

Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drain your sorrows
Then it floods away tomorrow

Evil thoughts and evil doings
Cold, alone you hang in ruins
Thought you'd escape the reaper
You can't escape the master keeper

'Cause you feel life's unreal and you're living a lie
Such a shame who's to blame and you're wondering why

Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head
Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead
Your life style to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all
You fooled all the people with magic
You waited on Satan's call

Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure
Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport
Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this Earth
Conceived in the eye of a secret
