| | Album: | Vanishing Lessons | | Track: | Vanishing Lessons | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 1 | | | | Lyrics: | 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
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."
(Quote
from "The Masque Of The Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe)
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 young ruler hung his
head
Not to follow, walked instead | | | |
