World in my eyes

 

 

 

Let me take you on a trip

Around the world and back

And you won't have to move

You just sit still

 

Now let your mind do the walking

And let my body do the talking

Let me show you the world in my eyes

I'll take you to the highest mountain

Tothe depths of the deepest sea

and we won't need a map

Belive me

 

Now let my body do the moving

And let my hands do the soothing

Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is

Nothing more than you can feel now

That's all there is

Let me put you on a ship

On a long, long trip

Your lips close to my lips

All the islands in the ocean

All the heavens in motion

Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is

Nothing more than you can touch now

That's all there is

Let me show you the world in my eyes

Home

 

Here is a song

From the wrong site of town

Where i'm bound

To the ground

By the loneliest sound

That pounds from within

And is pinning me down

 

Here is a page

from the emptiest stage

A cage or the heaviest cross ever made

A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid

 

And i thank you

For bringing me here

For showing me home

For singing these tears

Finally i've found

That i belong here

 

The heat and the sickliest

Sweet smelling sheets

That cling to the backs of my knees

And my feet

I'm drowning in time

To a desperate beat

 

And i thank you

For bringing me here

For showing me home

For singing these tears

Finally i've found

That i belong

 

Feels like home

I should have known

From my first breath

 

God send the only true friend

I call mine

Pretend that i'll make amends

The next time

Befriend the glorious end of the line

 

And i thank you

For bringing me here

For showing me home

For singing these tears

Finally i've found

That i belong here.

John the Revelator

 

John the revelator - put him in an elevator - take him up to the highest high - take him up to the top - where the mountains stop - let him tell his book of lies

 

John the revelator - he's a smooth operator - it's time we cut him down to size - take him by the hand - and put him understand - let us hear his alibis

 

By claiming god - as his holy right - he's stealing a god - from the israelites - stealing a god - from the muslim too - there is only one god - through and through

 

Seven lies multiplied by seven - multiplied by seven again - seven angels with seven trumpets - send them home on the morning train

 

Well who's that shouting - John the revelator - all he ever gives us is pain - well who's that shouting - John the revelator - he should bow his head in shame

 

By and by - by and by - by and by - by and by

Goodnight Lovers

 

 

Here somewhere in the heart of me

There is still a part of me  

That cares

 

And i'll, i'll still take the best you've got

Even though i'm sure it's not

The best for me

 

 

When you're born a lover

You're born to suffer

Like all soul sisters

And soul brothers

 

 

I, i can see the danger signs

They only help to underline

Your beauty

 

 

I'm not looking for an easy ride

True happiness cannot be tried

So easily

 

 

When you're born a lover

You're born to suffer

Like all soul sisters

And soul brothers

 

 

Like all soul sisters

And soul brothers

 

 

You can take your time

I'll be waiting in line

You don't even have to give me

The time of day

 

 

When you're born a lover

You're born to suffer

Like all soul sisters

And soul brothers

 

 

Like all soul sisters

And soul brothers

 

 

One caress

 

 

 

Well i'am down on my knees again

and i pray to the only one

who has the strength

to bear the pain

to forgive all the things that i've done

 

Oh girl,

lead me into your darkness

when this world is trying it's hardest

to leave me unimpressd

just one caress

from you and i'am blessed

 

When you think you've tried every road

every avenue

take one more look

at what you found old

and in it you'll find something new

 

 

I'am shying from the light

i always love the night

and now you offer me eternal darkness

 

 

I have to belive that sin

can make a better man

it's the mood that i'am in

that's left us back where we began

Precious

 

 

Precious and fragile things

Need special handeling

My god what have we done to you

We always tried to share

The tendernest of care

Now look what we have done to you

 

Things get damaged

Thngs get broken

I thought we'd manage

But words left unspoken

Left us so brittle

There was so little left to give

 

Angels with silver wings

Shouldn't know suffering

I wish i could take the pain for you

If god has a master plan

That only he understands

I hope it's your eyes he's seeing through

 

Things get damaged

Things get broken

I thought we'd manage

But words left unspoken

Left us so brittle

There was so little left to give

 

I pray you learn to trust

Have faith in both of us

And keep room in your hearts for two

 

Things get damaged

Things get broken

I thought we'd manage

But word left unspoken

Left us so brittle

There was so little left to give
