All my friends have told me;
If I hang around with you;
That I'll go blind
Well, you're on your own, you always were,;
In a land of wolves and thieves.
When He rose from the dead, did they believe?
If you're a doctor, I need a shot of love.
You can't get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag.;
Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy;
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
But the magician is quicker and his game;
Is much thicker than blood and blacker than ink
I was in your presence for an hour or so;
Or was it a day? I truly don't know.
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight;
And there's no moon.
The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
How did I meet you? I don't know.
Let me ask you one question;
Is your money that good
Guess it's too late to say the things to you;
That you needed to hear me say.
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
I wasn't born to lose you.
Now there's spiritual warfare and flesh and blood breaking down.;
Ya either got faith or ya got unbelief and there ain't no neutral ground.
I believe in the impossible, you know that I do
And then you told me later, as I apologized;
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
I'm T-boned and punctured;
But I'm known to be calm
This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town;
This is the blind horse that leads you around
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
How can I explain?;
Oh, it's so hard to get on
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in;
Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand,;
And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
