PENDRAGON LYRICS

1. Belle Âme

Do you ever sink your hands into the earth?
Do you question the reasons for your birth?
Do you inhale the smell of old leaves in your hands?
Do you really fail to understand?
Do you like to feel the crunch of fresh white snow?
And feel the sun scorched sand under your toes?
Do you feel the ice cold chill upon your breath?
Or do you smell of death?

You shine you shine
Still you shine still you shine
Who's gonna save you beautiful soul?
Who's gonna save you beautiful soul?
Who?

2. Beautiful Soul

Perception is without a doubt the strangest of all our animal instincts
Dealt by deception and a shameless ever self promoting hand
Guided by a race that fails to find a foothold of clear understanding

Still you shine
You shine
Still you shine
You shine

But the world’s full of fools
Too scared to climb the peaks of the truth
And there’s nothing you can do about that

Who’s gonna save you? Beautiful soul?
Who’s gonna save you? Beautiful soul?

Raising up your golden calf
Human idols of your fixation
Would it hurt so much to accept
The truth of this fraudulent flirtation?

Still you shine
You shine
Still you shine
You shine

The devil’s daughter that brings flowers and always sings
But never takes the time with the ones you love

Who’s gonna save you? Beautiful soul?
Who’s gonna save you? Beautiful soul?

The world's full of fools
And there's nothing you can do about that

Rage to the sun
Scream to the wind
Rage to the sun
Scream to the wind
Rage to the sun
Cry to the sky
Rage to the sun
What’s done is done
Rage to the sun
All that you want, you stupid freak
Till you tear out your nails and your hair
And that thousand yard stare
Say what you want
No one cares what you think anymore
No one cares
Rage to the sun
Scream to the wind
What’s done is done
You’re just as screwed up as the rest of us

3. Come Home Jack

She said come home Jack and cut the silver thread that binds you here
I really think I'll never be where I wanna be hey but that's just me
At least not in this world
It's animal instinct the bare bones
I have nothing left to give to get back home, to get back home
I've got no feelings in these hands - I've got no feelings in these arms

But I found out who I really am

Anomaly exorior memorium to get back home
Anomaly exorior memorium to get back home
All the chattering voices fell silent in my head
I was then in the moment staring at me
Chattering voices no more

Come home Jack and follow me back to the source of all
All your heartbeats and your shallow breaths have all been accounted for
A goodbye note to country and kin
Blows gently in the wind
I will never be far from you son
Just the other side of the hill

I've got no feelings in these hands - I've got no feelings in these arms

Anomaly exorior memorium to get back home
Anomaly exorior memorium to get back home

I live in the moment no future no past

Anomaly exorior memorium
Anomaly exorior memorium to get back home
Anomaly exorior memorium to get back home
I live for the moment no reason no rhyme
God only knows it'll be different next time

4. In Bardo

Lessons I learnt
Feelings I touched
Troubles I faced
Everything I embraced
All I screwed up
And all that luck
Now all my actions will mean something
And I can now surrender

Falling through a hole the size of a penny
Suddenly you're back here again
Screaming in your mother's arms
Maybe it'll be different next time

5. Faces Of Light

Never believe there are no faces of light
Never believe there is no beyond here
Never believe that all hope is lost

Your life in tatters and your hands are cut
To brave these heights is all now that matters

Never believe there are no faces of light
Leading on pushing up
That narrow face
High as the sky in the night stars
Never far away
Never believe
Never believe they're far away

Never believe - never believe

There is always a price to pay
And you've nothing left to give
There is a beyond here
Never far away
All your trials mean something now
Faces of light wipe the sweat from your brow

You won't always have to roll your stone up that hill
You might turn a corner to something new
And all the voices in your head become still
All your trials and tribulations
Mean something now
They'll wipe the sweat from your brow

6. Faces Of Darkness

Strike the fear
From your heart
You entered this life
Expecting love
Teach me help me learn
The names of all the birds
And reptiles
Teach me all
I trusted you
Still growing
You're a new soul
And it makes my skin crawl

At night
When I think of you
At night
When I self harm
I'm under your spell

Strike the fear
From your heart
The colour in my soul
Is something I must earn

7. For When The Zombies Come

Newspapers blow across the park
The last living dog somewhere in the distance
Gnawing on the corpse of the rotten planet earth
Driving your car through piles of twisted metal and dirt
How can you sit there and grin?
After all it was you who let the bastards in

No shame no remorse
You sold me down the river
To ingratiate yourself with the ones you wanna be with
Your shiny new best friends
It's not as if you didn't know
It's a means to an end

Too late to lock the door
Way too late to offer compassion to the poor
And still you look to save yourself
Don't keep saying what kind of God could let this happen?
We're perfectly capable of being destructive all by ourselves
No-one else needed
No-one else
It's the end

8. Explorers Of The Infinite

Listen to the silence howling in your head
A stark reminder you're alone
Feel the wind cut through your paper thin skin
Maybe it's the night that takes you all and takes you then
Unlocking my mind - time will tell - only time

Packed my bags and all we need
Try to keep calm - more haste less speed
To climb the jagged peaks
With colourful people - colourful freaks
Away from the crass and daily mundane
To flirt with danger and the criminally insane
There's a very good chance I may never come back
These are the new days - the unchartered track

It is what it is there's nothing you can do about it
Don't think the wind's your friend
Cos the wind won't know your name
Pushing on up forever why? God only knows

With our demented demons in this pit of kings
Where death is nothing and meaning is everything
Whatever he meant we all really know what he meant
For God's sake look after our people
Torn between there and here
I love you so much but I just can't breath

It is what it is there's nothing you can do about it
Don't think the wind's your friend
Cos the wind don't know your name
Pushing on up forever why? God only knows

9. Netherworld

She painted the sky sunshine yellow
The moon ocean blue
Pushing through the ice and snow
My soul still growing and flowing
Cascading like a waterfall
That never ends
Maybe I'm fine
Every Sunday morning rise and shine she smiles
Forgetting who we really are
No future no past just us
Just here and now

Maybe I'm fine
Every Sunday morning rise and shine she smiles
Forgetting who we really are
No future no past
Just keep breathing out breathing in
