From the recording Life In The Maze
Lyrics
Hear the clash of voices from above and down below
Got an angel in my head, the devil in my soul
(from below)
I’m the fire in your night, I’m the shadow in your light
I’m under the counter a pusher’s delight
(from above)
We’ve come to save the day, we’re here to set you straight
We’re answers to questions, wash pure your intentions
(from below)
What’s one more time? It felt good before
(from above)
Don’t do it!
(from below)
Take what you can
(from above)
I can’t use anymore!
Your music’s just noise, brings out a devils voice
(from below)
Don’t listen
(from above)
Start playing the harp
What about my guitar?
(from below)
Search for extremes in the heat of the night
(from above)
Don’t do it!
(from below)
Don’t take their advice
I can’t clear my mind!
(from above)
Purify….get to it, change your mind
(from below)
Don’t do it
(from above)
Save your life
I need peace in my mind
Hear the clash of voices from above and down below
Got an angel in my head, the devil in my soul
I’m the fire in your night, I’m the shadow in your light
I’m under the counter a pusher’s delight
We’ve come to save the day, we’re here to set you straight
We’re answers to questions, wash pure your intentions
What’s one more time? It felt good before
Don’t do it!
Take what you can
I can’t use anymore!
Your music’s just noise, brings out a devils voice
Don’t listen
Start playing the harp
What about my guitar?
Search for extremes in the heat of the night
Don’t do it!
Don’t take their advice
I can’t clear my mind!
Purify….get to it, change your mind
Don’t do it
Save your life
I need peace in my mind
Don’t need your voices to control my mind
Don’t need your crutch to get me through the night
Need no angel on my shoulder to control my head
I’ll take the devil’s wanton motives – I’ll kick ‘em back to hell!
Voices push to the left, resistance holds me to the right
Need to hold out, take control now
Anticipation getting hot, my mind is in a race but now my body says Stop!
Got to slowdown…..slowdown
Indecision intimidates, it steers you blind as your thoughts collide
Turn it around – turn it around ‘round
Time now to cut the line, redefine, redesign
Feel no more tug of war
I’ve learned to rectify and dignify the pride that hides
In this war, this tug of war
Look in my eyes, sometimes you’ll see the fire
That feeds this tug of war
Temptation knocks at my front door
Her satin, silk and beads, they fall to the floor
Got to hold out – take control now
Concentration drifts away, three songs inside my head begin to sound the same
Gotta slow down, gotta slow down
This tug of voices block your way, step aside – cut the line
You gotta turn it around, turn it around ‘round ‘round!
Time now to cut the line, redefine, redesign
And feel no more this tug of way
I’ve learned to rectify and dignify the pride that hides
In this war tug of war
Time now to nullify, pacify, disqualify
This tug of war, we can’t ignore
Choices are yours inside, take your time, then decide…
To stand or fall, make the call
Once you decide to choose a side, there ain’t no tug of war!
And I say now feel no more, this tug of war
I’ve learned to cut the line, redesign, redefine
And feel no more this tug of war
Opened my eyes to feel this strength inside
To make me ride
Through this war, this tug of war
Choices are yours inside, take your time, then decide to…
Stand or fall – make the call
Once you decide to choose a side….there ain’t no tug of war!!!
There ain’t no tug of war
