i used to think that i can like everyone
and everyone can like me
that’s why i had friends in different groups
but belonged to none
i drank from many wells
my thirst only quenched by one
the great love of the sun gods
somewhere in heaven
where the oranges taste like honey
studied with different masters
false worshipped their ways
half-assed their rituals
faked loyalties
knew i was only loyal
to the inner callings
her voice crying in my heart
and this caused a lot of hurt
along the path
on the battlefields
it rained down a flood
of sun rays drowned out
they gave me a passport
with a name and a number
put me in the army to fight for some flag
knew i don’t have a name
only fight for love
flagless, godless, homeless
traveller of worlds
sailor of seas
looking for a song to comfort me
grew my beard and got a tan
spoke strange tongues and danced
alone and afraid
dreamed of her eyes and skin
her body on mine
our hearts intertwined
ride the railroad sunshine
truth is there are people in this world
they got this cold cold stare
they like to make false promises
i’ll make you famous
i’ll do this and that
you show ‘em your fangs
and they scare real easy
money men don’t have time for dreamers
now i know who i want to be
bathed in the blood of viking gods
get up on that ol’ wooden stage
stomp you a wild stallion beat
howling wolves in heat
sing you to the moon my love
all these years
all these songs
she move me
in ways i cannot even begin
to grasp
her grasp as i grasp right back
we laugh like mad lovers on a kill
no sleep for wicked wonderers
this is now the point
of no return
