I went down to the liquor store And bought some more liquor I drank myself to sleep in a starry night Hoping that I would drown In all the ocean's sound I swam into it's depths with my eyes closed tight Hoping I would see the light
Well I built a fire with both my hands And watched it burn the land I planted seeds in ashes Just to see if it would grown again Took a train to outer space To see if I could find a place Where I could watch the sweet sun burn the scars off my face Hoping I would see the light
Well the rain came down without a sound And flowers sprouted from the ground How can I not speak of God when all I see is this mirage We pick up guns and we kill our own Oh this road leads so far from home I pray to the angel of fire To burn this mess until it dies At the top of the hill At the feet of the tree I found the truth in an apple seed Who would've known That when it had grown I could see all the stars and all the cosmos Some say I'm sick and some call me mad They say I've lost all that I've had True I am mad for the light, for the spark That resides in the deepest depths of my heart
