Silently vanishing, then reappearing
|
Slipping away for a while
|
Start dematerializing before your eyes
|
Always a step from our grasp
|
|
At the turn of the century
|
Lived a Mr. Houdini
|
Shrouded in a mystery
|
He fooled all humanity
|
|
Why is it a mystery
|
The very thing that seems to me
|
Explains itself so easily
|
The love of wealth brings misery
|
|
Things we acquire means fuel for the fire
|
The feeling is gone, then our soul we will pawn
|
Things we acquire means fuel for the fire
|
The feeling is gone, then our soul we will pawn
|
|
Chinese water torture cell
|
And metamorphosis
|
Jail escapes, buried alive
|
Walking through a solid wall
|
|
Suicide among the rich
|
Defies the laws of reason which
|
Tells us those who have it all
|
Must often answer to death's call
|
|
Things we acquire means fuel for the fire
|
The feeling is gone, then our soul we will pawn
|
Dollars for happiness, that's what the world tells us
|
Pour all yourself in the pursuit of wealth
|
|

"There are chords in the hearts of the most reckless
|
which cannot be touched without emotion. Even
|
with the utterly lost to whom life and death are
|
equally jests, there are matters of which no jest can
|
be made"
|
|
Ever since I was a boy
|
I have always kept your laws
|
Now I want to follow you
|
Join you in your noble cause
|
Jesus turned to him and said
|
Sell all you have, give to the poor
|
The rich your ruler hung his head
|
Not to follow, walked instead
|
