Heard every word that was said that night
|
When the light of the world put the world to right
|
Well here's to the boys back in 628
|
Where an ear to the wall was a twist of fate
|
I will shine a blinding light
|
Through those hearts as black as night
|
Sticks and stones may break my bones
|
But as least the seeds of love will be sown
|
Now once in awhile when I feel no shame
|
I get down on my knees and I pray for rain
|
And though the breeze blows gently while I state my case
|
There'll be certain men waiting just to scratch my face
|
Hand on my heart I will make a stand
|
For the life and the times of the mirrorman
|
In my head there is a mirror
|
When I've been bad, I've been wrong
|
Food for the saints that are quick to judge me
|
Hope for a Badman
|
This is the Badman's Song
|
Guilt in the frame of the looking-glass
|
Puts a shine on the mind where reflections pass
|
Where the jigsaw pieces of a broken man
|
Try and fit themselves together again
|
Lies in disguise in the name of trust
|
Put your head in the sand it will turn to dust !
|
What's your problem ? What's your curse ?
|
Won't it make the matter worse ?
|
In my head...
|
And they say " Faith can move move mountains
|
Fire can cleanse your soul "
|
Faith can move mountains
|
But mind over matter won't you stop all your chatter - No !
|
I heard every word that was said that night
|
When the light of the world put the world to right
|
When I hear soft whispers at the break of day
|
(I'm in trouble every step of the way)
|
Sweet talking boys who can do no wrong
|
When the stories are tall as the day is long
|
With such a thin drawn between friend and foe
|
Lord help me now and bless my soul !
|
Look at yourself - See how you lie
|
Your hands start shaking and you don't know why
|
Look at yourself - See how you lie
|
Your hands start shaking and you don't know why
|
Well there's food for the saints that are quick to judge me
|
Hope for a Badman...
