The Way Through

[Intro - Voice Sample]
The light should shine through your eyes
The light should be spoken through your words
The light should be felt in your deeds
That is the true purpose of our being on this Earth
To uncover the light and let it shine brighter and brighter

[Deca]
I wish that we could clip puppet strings, among other things
And walk hand in hand smiling and suffering
I know a thing or two about the sins love redeems
And what it means to play kings and queens in each other's dreams
A pyrite crown, a killer whale clavicle;
A phoenix wishbone and shell casings from the Alamo
All powerful, all talk
Hiding from the prying eyes that the walls got
Watchin' while the ball drops

I'm scared of life
Erudite parasites spray pesticides and pave paradise
Joni Mitchell never lies
String pullers never tell the truth
They enterprise and fabricate a world view to sell the youth
But when you smile I forget about the mess we made, and life acquires depth through the trials of yesterday
I met you at a show hiding out behind a lens, basking in your afterglow smashing time and time again
The silent hymns of lambs laying in the lion's den are channeled from a higher plane and planted in the minds of men
You and I could bend the bars back on iron gates, clip puppet strings and crawl together through the fireplace

I need to trace the contours of a demon's face
I need the space to say my piece before I leave this place
I need to make the same poundcake Anita bakes and reawake from the grave to raise Kundalini snakes
The fear of feeling shame's crippling
You push me in the right direcion, we suffer countless life lessons
Love above everything's the essence
The revelation, the crown jewel of every earth angel's education
I'm wide awake now I see it so clear
The sound of wedding bells is like music to my ears
The marriage of heaven and hell the sacred veil of tears
The conviction that a wish could shatter this house of mirrors
