Choir A World Away
All bright things have shadow sides Gilded kingdoms are illusion To be forgiven is to know divine love Proud religion is delusion
I'm a world away from enlightened More than a stone's throw from the truth I'm a sad, far cry from a man who never lies But I'll hold the lantern high for you I'll hold the lantern high for you
I have stumbled down dark streets Too drunk to know the dangerously Too blind to tell a demon from an angel Or a lover from a stranger
I'm a world away from enlightened More than a stone's throw from the truth I'm a sad, far cry from a man who never lies But I'll hold the lantern high for you I'll hold the lantern high for you
Scratching at the ocean floor No hop to fix your eyes on Then suddenly you're breathing under water Behold the luminous horizon
I'm a world away from enlightened More than a stone's throw from the truth I'm a sad, far cry from a man who never lies But I'll hold the lantern high for you I'll hold the lantern high for you
