Ceilings No. 2 Lyrics

Ceilings No.2
Honeybus, 1970***
Story
(Ray Cane )
You tell me I live in a dream,
And no-one will change anything,
Yet you stand at your window condemning the day,
Oh I'm gonna live again.

I listen to your every word,
And nothing you say seems to hurt,
Like people who smiling will walk down the drain,
Oh I'm gonna live again.
Oh help me in what I must do,
And show me the things that are true,
Don't give me the mask that disguises your face,
Oh I will build me a place.

You leaders of nations arise,
Stop wasting your god-given lives,
On useless pursuits that will end with the grave,
Oh I'm gonna live again.
