lyrics

There's a daemon in the best of us, and it craves the light of day,
Because we fear what it might bring to us, so we keep it locked away.
And if we are not brave and we are not strong, that's just the way we're made,
But if we understood ourselves we could be sane.

There's an angel in the worst of us, but we just don't hear it's voice,
And so we blame the sins of fathers, and yet it's us who make the choice.
And so we're always right, and they're never wrong - no-one listens anyway.
But it's ourselves we see in all that we survey.

'Raindrops keep fallin' on me 'ead!' 'There's a graveyard wind that cuts through me, and it chills me to the bone.'
'I mean, of course... um, yes, absolutely, yes.' 'Ah, yes, but you are not as UGLY as I was told you were.'
'This is no sound that Earth owes.' 'Sea nymphs hourly ring his knell - Ding, dong, ding, dong....'
'I have been busy, busy, busy: rush'n' about, rush'n' about, smok'n' in my bed! Politely, and with the light on.'

Sometimes when it's quiet I remember things I don't believe that I have ever known.
These faces with no names, what do they want from me?
When I question them they always fade away.
And then when it gets dark I hear their voices,
Yeah, but if I told you what they said you would not understand.
And then the silence rushes in like dark waves.
I forget now what it was they had to say.

There's a graveyard wind that cuts through me, and it chills me to the bone,
So I'll rase my flag of perfidy and I'll make my way alone.
Because I am not strong and I am not brave I'll keep smiling just the same,
Otherwise you might see me for what I am.
