Take a long look around
|
there's too much commotion in this town
|
vipers on the street as thick as thieves
|
they all say they want out but no-one leaves
|
you might caress the holy stone
|
you may worship some poor fool's paper throne
|
you can wire up all it takes
|
you'll just end up one of nature's little mistakes
|
|
When things ain't quite what they seem
|
you cannot find your way
|
you've lost that golden dream
|
meet me on the road
|
I will share your heavy load
|
we'll be safe there tonight
|
in the house of light
|
you might think your life is cursed
|
you might know you're gonna die at sea of thirst
|
you might always be ignored
|
you may never strike a sympathetic chord
|
when things don't amount to much
|
your hopes are all washed up
|
you've lost your golden touch
|
meet me on the road
|
I will share your heavy load
|
we'll be bathed in white
|
at the house of light
|
|
Take a good look around
|
there's nothin' but confusion goin' down
|
all the stories have been sold
|
there's no innocence or love to behold
|
|
lift me up take me to the house of light
|
lift me up so I can see
|
|
