Broken glass The plan has failed The silence knows A man of faith Everything that he knows, what a layman will do for diamonds Fell on his knees gave in to sad overload And all of the survivors shamed in the trench Scrape up what’s left of his soul Of his soul, of his soul
Come out of the shadows The hills are a-green Painting you a rainbow Singing you a dream Now what is pride for you It ain’t no good to you You’ll make a substitute That lets you fly away
You silence every love Yet you always starve for more You’re only wasting time Lucky to be alive Lucky to be alive Your heart was set to lose The nurse called out for blood You’re a celestial tremor Surfin’ on the fast-track Blue suede shoes Dancing on a landmine Designed just for you The mess you’re in, oh heaven No stranger to fear It won’t disappear Truth never fades away These thoughts are me
And what do you think they’ll do? The ground is a pendulum The continent is gravel Humming in your shoe A pendulum And who decides for us At the very end of trust The undertow of love We only turn away
