MEANING BY NUMBERS (PAINT BY CHOAS)
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.
I was laughing just to keep from crying, I was living just to keep from
dying, people break and they limp sick broken, lovers dance the truth
unspoken, time moved on and I stood still, I knew there was a
mountain just over that hill, the past is dreaming the future is asleep,
I’m the bloodshot eyes on the face of the deep,
Meaning by numbers paint by chaos, don’t let faith destroy your
doubt, the world is wicked and fortune’s blade, don’t fall in if you ever
want out.
Looking into eyes of glass and soul of stone, always reaching out to
find your always so alone, piece by piece it falls together as you fall
apart, suddenly your face to face with the end and you don’t know
where to start, you try to pull the earth over your head till you cant see
the sky, seems your whole life is spent just learning how to die, love is
burning bridges and meaning don’t mean much, you’ve got to really
feel feel feel to really know how to touch.
Meaning by numbers paint by chaos, don’t let faith destroy your
doubt, the world is wicked and fortune’s blade, don’t fall in if you ever
want out.
Separate me from the infinite scheme, I am my own dream, roll the
planet let the raven loose, I can transpose his scream, storm the living
dead go blind, I can seize my mind, if life shall not look where it lives,
sand bone is what it will find, spin my head into heaven’s view, and I’ll
flavor what is true, and I’ll celebrate beauty’s unbridled touch, that
turns me into you, I know that chaos is my paint, and color is my saint,
and I’ll bury my soul in a rusty can, far from the midnight’s feint.
Meaning by numbers paint by chaos, don’t let faith destroy your
doubt, the world is wicked and fortune’s blade, don’t fall in if you ever
want out.
