about

I wrote the words to this one overnight as I had to finish the track in the studio the very next day. I like the interplay of words and phrases that one can utilize when it comes to writing lyrics. This is quite possibly my favorite track on this particular compilation and it's sounds magical when I play it in my car while I drive on a dark desolate highway.

lyrics

Lyrics:

"you fell from the sky...from the sky...you fell from the sky...you fell from the sky...from the sky...
you fell from the sky"


In this perverted labyrinth
I found you
Taken by whatever comes your way
Dirty corners dirty rooms
Your innocence burns at the core of your heart
You begin to crawl on your belly
You begin to shed a new skin
What creation abounds when he says no

When are you going to realize you are just like me
I will take you in my arms
I will protect you with my broken wings and with a kiss down there we will take flight and conquer all delusions
All those foolish dreamers have nothing on us
We will have our own escape like lovers on a bridge in Paris
Those who don't see who don't believe will never know the sweetness of your bitter tears
Those lies in your eyes will be put in me like a poet ravishing his muse

Everybody here wants you tonight
But I am the one you need
From their lost illusions, I will take you away to give you something more to never let you down
So drink from me my lover all that I have inside to nurture you to give you life

There are no more tickets to this theatre show
The performance is sold out
I can see Voltaire and the marquise have their seats now
Within' the shadows of a city called Baton Rouge are you ready
Are you ready
Are you....

You fell from the sky
from the sky high
You fell from the sky
from the sky high
Am I going to? Am I going to?
You fell from the sky
Am I going to? Am I going to?
You fell from the sky high
An angel's dance An angel's dance
You fell from the sky
from the sky high
You fell from the sky
from the sky

"There are no more tickets to this theatre show..."
