Halo Of Flies
Lyricist:Stephen Ramsay, Martin Simon Walkyier
All you needed was somebody with a dream A fool to crucify or to put upon a pedestal Only dead fish float with the stream Compared with you I seem like an extra-terrestrial
I'm not your Robin Hood or Peter Pan I won't play Jesus Christ or Santa Claus I'll never pass for a superman I'm just an effect trying to find a cause
Tell me who am I? What am I and why am I here? Who am I? What am I and why am I here?
Is it because I'm flesh and blood That creature comforts feel so good? I give my body all it needs It eats and sleeps and shits and breeds
And if I keep my feelings stum Hard luck, bibo ergo sum Just trying to do the best I can Is a giant leap for this small man
All you needed was somebody with a dream A fool to crucify or to put upon a pedestal Only dead fish float with the stream Compared with you I seem like an extra-terrestrial
You say that life is a miracle I don't believe one word Forgive me for being so cynical From down here you all look absurd
So are you happy now we all feel the same? Martyrs to the cause, boredom level nearing terminal You're afraid to go against the grain Next to you I feel like a shining intellectual
James T Kirk, Albert Einstein Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Sitting safe aboard the Enterprise If you're out there send a sign I need somebody to sympathize with
Tell me who am I? What am I and why am I here? Who am I? What am I and why am I here?
Must I succumb to every urge First feast and fast then binge and purge My spirit's strong, my flesh is weak I laugh and cry and scream and speak
And sometimes when I feel confused I walk a path I did not choose Watch my life on video A private homemade horror show
All you needed was somebody with a dream A fool to crucify or to put upon a pedestal Only dead fish float with the stream Compared with you I seem like an extra-terrestrial
So are you happy now we all feel the same? Martyrs to the cause, boredom level nearing terminal You're afraid to go against the grain Next to you I feel like a shining intellectual
You say that life is a miracle I don't believe one word Forgive me for being so cynical From down here you all look absurd
You say that life is a miracle I don't believe one word Forgive me for being so cynical From down here you all look absurd
You say that life is a miracle I don't believe one word
