Way of the Lamb

Maria slits the dawn
I’m almost no one
No one like the unknown lamb
In the shadows of man
In forgotten holes
Where even animals
Surrender their command

This crown of thorns
This cross to the strange
Stranger than you wanted
Strange like the way of the lamb

I am powerless emotion
I am swinging from the night
The moon is on a string
I know you want it now
When the carnival of voices
Drowns the small talk and the jive
Like the way of the lamb

Can you dig the World War Zero
Like a man?
I tore the crown of thorns
From my head
It was such a drag
Now I’m free of all the (???)
I know you’ll understand
Just like the way of the lamb

This crown of thorns
This cross to the strange
All the nameless gospels
All the faceless names
Of the lamb

Maria slits the dawn
I’m almost no one
Maria slits the dawn
I’m almost no one
