lyrics

Ra

I´m not what I am
I am what you think I am
Not the mess that I see
But more the chance to heal

Down the mud paths
Over the stones
You find the waterfall
It rains but it calms you down
I can see a path not on any map
Think I might just take myself down
Take myself down

Light is red when you look at it
I think of Ra when he opened his eyes
He was a good man
They changed him around inside

He wore black
Black, black
And made his music
Somewhere on the island
He found a place to live

Guess you don’t believe him
But I did

The crystal spoke
Somebody put it in Ra
But the light is always different
Sparkling in each direction

But you don’t believe him
But I do
What is belief to you?

Dogs chase their thoughts
His clothes are red
His blood is red
Dogs see him up there again
Go under the fence
And after his neck
They haven’t got him yet

Part of me is a lover
Part of me is a killer
I feel my hands connect
To your body
I wanna bring you pleasure
Pleasure

Here I have been for two years
I seen a lot of the days
I made a lot of holes
I gave life for many trees
I drank many hands of water
From the mountain stream
I fixed many walls of stone
That fell down in the rain
That fell down in the rain
That fell down in the rain
That fell down in the rain
