In the distance
Hidden from sight - patiently
Waiting for me
Part of the night - enemy mine
This horizon
Drawn together, one forever
Wrong and the right - enemy mine
Now is the time to decide
Don't answer me with the same old questions
Don't patronise with those tired old solutions
I've heard these before and I've been here before
Don't pay me back with the same old deceptions
Don't give me facts and predictable suggestions
I've heard these before and I've been here before
Then you're screaming all the time
You don't listen any more
You were standing alone with your coat of kindness
Covered in mud - it was soaked in my blood
When you fed me to the lions
in your personal arena
And you watched till the cries
and the prayers grew weaker
Head in my hands - been dripping tears in the sand
The roar of the lions
As the victim lies damned and alone
Look further than your preconceptions, expectations
Where the power of the mind can take you out beyond this reach
Higher than the dull and simple world you know so well
Back to paradise...
Who keeps the child - Tell me which is the mother?
The need in her eye, and the eyes of the other
and I've seen this before and I've been here before
Cut the child in half, give a piece to each woman
Just like before, I've felt this before
And the gurgles of laughter are echoes once more in my heart
So I lie down in my mothers arms
And I cry in my mothers arms, praying
Praying for the end to come
A friend to come and rescue me - right now, right now
So I listen to my mother's voice
And I listen to the only choice she had to make
Living fear cold and naked
Throw me away? Don't throw me away!
"Take the child - it's yours!"
Was the only thing she could have said
Does it matter to you?
In the lion's cage we're all the same
Does it matter to you?
It's a child's game with a child's name
Does it matter to you?
If I place the blame upon your shoulders
Don't try to fool the world
Don't try to rule the world again
Throw away my life in the fireplace
With the old love letters
And the Nottingham laces;
Trying to forget the warm embraces
Video suppers and the funny faces
Does it matter to you?
Does it matter to you?
Does it matter to you?
Does it matter at all?

Just a tingle in my fingers
A shiver in my soul

He waits in the dark for lives, misguided and wrecked
The catcher of innocent souls
He's proud of his human collection
Of losers who give up the chase...
