Lyrics

Foreign Lands

By The Strivers
Music and lyrics: JC

Honestly asking myself
"Who you think you are?
Why you wear that face?
Why do you love that blinding star?"

"Can I navigate inside
My radiant darkened thought?
Reconstruct its colors
Free the light within still caught?"

All the lonely hours
All the painful days of youth
Have turned into flowers
I can see their hidden truth

Pouring my life into the
Goodness of your hands.
Fires up my momentum
you are truly my best friend

Their sterile glove
Full of codes and protocol
Can not understand
The winged word that moves through all

Hiding the last remnants
Of real life inside my heart
It'll stay unsullied
And be there for a new start

Modern life is trapped in
Lazy comfort-distort
Seems to be too late
For us to abort
No real questions
Just answers of sort
Wasting alive time
Complaining life's short
To point out the wrong
Our sport.

I
Feel
My
Weightless weight
Waking up in the morning
Knowing I've been with it you
Embraced we cried in the darkness
For everything untrue
Now my hand can smell yours
From this side of the curtain of worlds
Mid the explosions of so many wars
The secrets of life in our hearts live uncurled
There is a song residing in space
Made out of the secrets of human pain
Shaping creation, defeating the maese
Alchemy for the tormented
The slain

Now I go around
Always looking for your eyes
Here at home
And in foreign lands
Here at home
And in purer lands
And in foreign lands, yeah
And in purer lands
And in foreign lands, yeah
And in purer lands....
