lyrics

Lyrics

I’ve been watching you for days now
From the other side of the room.
Like the points of two ice picks your eyes are sharp and blue.
The chance of sin never occurred to you.

A giant hawk angel,
A creature from above
You were when I first met you,
But I have never been, I’ve never been in love.

Lions and serpents and eagles have served me for years.
They cover my body, protect me from fears.
I tried to get through to you,
But all you ever say is...

I’ve got no use for it.

One more attempt, I try once again to make you happy.
A portrait of Jesus will do.
I tried to get through to you,
But all you ever say is...

I’ve got no use for it.
