IQ - The Seventh House lyrics
To be where once they met One who comes to lay the past to rest inside One who can't forget Yesterday the heroes of the hour Who survived those who fought and lost Standing at the moment of release they pause To count the dreadful cost My life is out of condition I've held it together myself the best I can I'll never feel this way again After all this time we've been apart Still now I wonder where you are No-one understands how close you came to us No-one knows how far This time it's harder than ever I've weathered the storm and I kept you safe and warm I'll never feel this way again Oh, my angel in black water All your heartache soon be over Oh, my baby, rest you well Cathedral that man created, you're weighted down by a jealous sound Bewildered and dislocated, your soul deflated and gone to ground Nobody, no final direction, no way to connect in this heavier state The lives that we never remember are heading us out to another mistake It's with me, it's waiting for me as Heaven is calling us to our knees And there in the seventh house lie the seventy-five figures such as these I'm all out of random Sentenced by madmen who have abandoned me What chance of survival? I've had an eyeful more than I cared to see And if I forget you or if I let you fall under someone's spell Nobody can blame you, put out the flame, you kept it alive so well What web are we weaving? Nothing achieving, are you receiving me? So far out in the ocean, stuck in emotion on an unending sea And if you forget me, don't ever let me under your broken wing Nobody can know you kept it below you, I never felt a thing What a way to go How did all the dreaming in my life arrive at such a bitter end? On the rooftops draped in black, denial stopped me in my tracks By the fearful light of dusk, this position I defend All around the sky is cracked, won't somebody send me back? Fourteen hundred hours, won't forget that day Coal-black sky, the earth a hundred shades of grey In the aftermath, as silent as the grave I alone remained, no other soul was saved Faces turning over Limbs that shake without a conscious kind of movement now For all their tomorrows we gave our last day today In a future all their own Documents reveal patriotic zeal Singing to remember, drinking to forget the lie All the name beyond recall Empty politics in houses one to six Locked and barred against the memory My life is out of condition I've held it together myself the best I can I'll never feel this way again, again These are the lives we are measured by Heaven help us to answer why Every minute of every day they die Waiting and wondering all alone Silent voices across the land Speak in tongues they can never understand Nameless and wandering far from home Always held in the seventh house Everything we inherit now's the same |
