Anywhere Out Of The World Lyrics

Dead Can Dance Anywhere Out Of The World

We scaled
                              the face of reason
                                   to find
                               at least one sign
                               that would reveal
                              the true dimensions
                                  of life...
                                lest we forget.

                   And maybe it's easier to withdraw from life,
                   with all of its misery and wretched lies,
                                away from harm.

                                    We lay
                             by cool, still waters
                                   and gazed
                                 into the sun.
                              And like the moth's
                             great imperfection,
                                   succumbed
                              to her fatal charm.

                And maybe it's me who dreams unrequited love,
                         the victim of fools who watch
                       and stand in line away from harm!

                             In our vain pursuit
                          of life for one's own end
                            will this crooked path
                             ever cease to end?
