Bilingual
Lead me from tortured dreams
Childhood themes of nights alone
Wipe away endless years
Childhood tears as dry as stone
From seeds of confusion
Illusions dark blossoms have grown
Even now in furrows of sorrow
The doubt still is sown
My life's course is guided
Decided by limits drawn
On charts of my past ways
And pathways since I was born
Double faces, tight defense
Talk too often, talk no sense
You're a Judas with smiling eyes
Cut us up with smiling knives
Clock the quick to raise the dead
Video to our bed
Drain the blood from hearts of stone
Whores and hustlers pick the bones
Come forth from love's fire
Born in life's fire
Born in life's fire
Come forth from love's fire
In the burning all are yearning for life to be
And in pain there must be gain, new life
Searching in salty streams and dark hidden seas
Where are the lost souls' sunbeams?
They walk... They were sent to the gates
Ride the tides of fate
They were sent to the gates
In the burning of our yearning
For life to be
There's no end to my life
No beginning to my death
Time is life
