Myths

[Instrumental]

I harbour no secrets just unquestioned answers My silence unnerving like unaccompanied dancers I'll show you my treasure, you're blind to the value You say that you hear me and yet you continue Your monologue Your diatribe Your loveless god leaves you dead inside Won't stop (can't stop me) dreaming (won't make me) While I'm (I'm rising) breathing (defying) Can't take (won't break me) the fear away (can't take me) There's colour behind the grey Darkness (you're blinded) hijacked (closed minded) Clothed in (can't see me) bright black (can you feel me?) Deafening (don't know me) silence (stare right through me) Exposed passive violence Time is irrelevant, measures just movement Now is your moment but how will you use it? In regret, jealousy, possibility, opportunity?

There's a tale of sadness Written in the snot stains on your pillow (What do you know?) There's a world of madness That you hide from, outside your window (How do you know?) Come child, can't you see the sun is shining? Stand proud, don't let them frighten you away Run wild, even when the moon is hiding Scream loud, 'cause they can't hear you anyway Morning but you haven't woken, Playtime but your toys are broken Oh no, where will you go? Can't finish what you haven't started, Date night for the broken-hearted You know, but it won't show Bottle with a fancy label Meal for one cold on the table Won't eat and you can't sleep Invite to the party opened Lines rehearsed but never spoken Can't breathe so you don't leave Hidden truth, shrouded with lies, confused Buried by hate, abuse Bilious, self consumed Awake but you're sound asleep Open your eyes see me Open your ears and hear Open your heart don't fear consanguinity There's a tale of sadness Painted by the tear stains on your photo Please don't let go Come child, can't you see the sun is shining? Run wild Maybe we'll find a better day

I watched hope die before my eyes Despair the sole survivor Stop your bombs and then you're gone Ashes where my dreams were While you sleep From fear of death I flee, to ocean deep Made refugee, maybe But call me human Everything I knew is gone Lost beneath the rubble Build your wall and watch me fall From the dizzy heights of survival

Remember back to times when lies were true This mystery soliloquy still leaves you hid from view The more I know the less of what I knew These desert sands, my withered hands, a whisper misconstrued Blinded by the things that I've been shown A curtain call, a public fall, deep into the unknown A veil of stone, dark shadows hide your face An effigy of empathy, a forgery of grace There's nothing left here to see You know, you can't see me Grasping at shadows and dreams Nothing's quite as it seems Lead me through To you

Blind lead the blind to the altar call And if God hates fags then he hates us all Barricade the doors and defend the walls ‘Cause if you let me in I might infect you all Nice smiles on all the right faces Dark words to separate the races Be seen in all the right places And your tithes pay the lawyers for the litigation cases. Poison fruit that we yield Ancient bloodline congealed Scattered bloodstained broken glass left where we once kneeled As we blacken the sun We deny what we’ve done Shattered dreams passed from fatherless father to son Blood like tears from a crown of thorns Heads bowed in shame as the Father mourns Bishop’s move, sacrifice the pawns Sun eclipsed as a new day dawns Truth will wait until tomorrow Justice dies in the lies we swallow Emptiness of the thoughts we borrow As we follow the hollow to wallow in sorrow There its more to find Free the tethered mind Leave this shame we bore behind Spirit show the way End the games we play Father teach us how to pray Deep humility Betwixt the sacred three Only you can show me who to be Heaven come to earth Quiet the lies we’ve heard Show the worthless of their worth

Point to heaven as you trample the earth Tell the world about your second birth Speak with words of angels and of men Your loveless heart seems to conflict with them Pharisee Have you become a pharisee? Suffer little children come to me Only if you pass your GSCEs Study scripture and pray every day But don't let on though if you think you're gay You move mountains, yeah, 'cause you've got faith Your possessions, well you gave them away Heal the sick with power from God above But it means nothing if you've not got love You have wisdom, words of prophecy You unravel life's great mysteries Give your body to the enemy What's the gain though if your heart's empty? Pharisee Have I become a pharisee? Pharisee Yeah, point the finger back at me

It only takes a spark To set this house on fire It only takes a thought And yet our souls conspire To keep everything the same They will not heed your words if you refuse to play the game You're just a stow away aboard a ship of fools And you're never going to win if they will not tell you the rules And we're all neck deep, the tide is coming in But we're too afraid to look as we caress our favourite sin And now we can't tell the pleasure from the pain And we'll die of dehydration as we're drowning in champagne Wandering tired and alone Drifting lost and can't find my way Home seems too far away I'm weak and tired at the end of the day You can't blame the left or the right Some things are just not black or white The blindness to what's wrong or right I'm quitting the game but I will not give up the fight All that glitters not gold Question everything I have been Told I must toe the line The nation speaks But I know that voice is not mine It's only me that's left to blame And only me can change the game And on the day that me finds love Then me no longer only Us a voice beyond me Divine speaks as one and yet as a trinity Surround and within Broken doors so that all may come in

Dark eyes, crumpled brow Broken shoulders of time in grief War takes each day A hate extension there is no peace Hold their hands, feel their grasp Small faces, mothers cry Hold them up and make things right To all the sons across the lands Take their prayers resolve your fight See their eyes, feel each breath 'Neath the dark, no sleep now 'Neath the dark, I cannot seem to breathe 'Neath the dark, we are scared 'Neath the dark, I cannot break my rage Forever soldier lay down your gun Now the war must end Forever soldier be the first to stand Hold their hands again Dawn comes but there is nothing new here Above the homes comes the scream of death Western bombs or Eastern planes the same Forever soldier will this be your final breath? Destruction, future gone Where is faith when hate takes hold? Don't be afraid to take on hope Don't be afraid to let love reign Break the cycle, forgive them The smoke that chokes the air they breathe The guns which birth the widows grief The body bags in which they leave The press suppress the unbelief Forever soldier lay down your gun Now the war must end Forever soldier be the first to stand First to forgive them Tear this out, this feud of years no more Tear this out, vengeance be gone No more this night Thanks to tedro77 for sending these lyrics.
