LOOKING FOR SOUL
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.
Well my feeling are only skin deep, and beauty is the fabric of erotic
suckling motion, I want to lose all I’ve lost so as to find what I can
keep, a measure of the silence transcend all the commotion, I want to
move thru the world like sunlight’s lover, I wanna dance on the bones
of legends and f*** like a rainbow, I’m gonna paint the maps and terra
incognito I will discover, I will not believe wish or think I will know.
I wanna see the kingdom come, I wanna beat the heartbeat drum, I
wanna swim in tides beyond all control, oh oh I’m looking for soul.
I will drink the blood of the river, and the wine will deliver, me, I will
fall upon my prey, I will set the endless day, free, and I will close my
eyes and see.
Let me live it just for love and let me sing it like a prayer, let me walk
with angels and dream with gods, I will dress like clouds and touch like
breath and air, I will bet on the sunrise and just laugh at the odds,
mind drunk with the ghost of eternity spilling wine and song, reason is
a glamour shot of the ugliest mermaid in the sea, I’m dancing with
music’s memory where creation banged its gong, and the beauty of
Eve’s naked body before she plucked the apple from the tree.
I wanna live in Eden’s vacant lot, where original sin has been forgot, I
wanna cross the bridge of sighs and pay that toll, oh oh I’m looking for
soul.
Oh petty Earth lets borrow Saturn’s rings for a day, lets toast
marshmallows on a sunset and kiss the rain, lets send flowers to every
star in the Milky Way, let the whole world make love at the same time
like the sound of a distant train, time just babbles barks and moans
and silence is a poet, I will skin beauty’s hid and make a coat for my
bed, and if I feel like love is my vision my eyes will show it, and I will
walk thru the field of sorrows though my feet be made of lead.
I wanna find the worlds true heart, see the whole in every part, I wanna
climb out of mankind's petty whole, oh oh I’m looking for soul.
