Verse 1:
Demonize - the devil in me
By way of wicked men - with their wicked tongues clacking.
I don't mind - chastise.
Taste my lips - they burn from the running...
Chorus:
I've touched the sun on high
And tore my mind as i fell from the sky;
I've burned my tongue in thirst of peace...
Like a horrid bolt from the blue
I guild the lily and find nothing in you,
So i wash my hands so clean of this…
Verse 2:
Lay me down - cast a sun shadow,
Let me blind my gaze - on you, you jackdaw widow.
The waking hours - have slowed.
Breathe it in - for your embrace has become a garrote...
Chorus:
I've touched the sun on high
And tore my mind as i fell from the sky;
I've burned my tongue in thirst of peace...
Like a horrid bolt from the blue
I guild the lily and find nothing in you,
So i wash my hands so clean of this…
Bridge:
The crescendo to your revenge has fallen on deaf ears
For in the fullness of time, all will mean nothing.
Your kind, i've learned off pat through these fruitless years -
But i've got it in the neck for conducting this symphony
In a way…
Chorus:
I've touched the sun on high
And tore my mind as i fell from the sky;
I've burned my tongue in thirst of peace...
Like a horrid bolt from the blue
I guild the lily and find nothing in you,
So i wash my hands so clean of this…
So clean of this…
