Lyrics for Exit

You know he got the cure You know he went astray He used to stay awake to drive The dreams he had away He wanted to believe In the hands of love His head it felt heavy As he cut across the land A dog started crying Like a broken hearted man In the howling wing In the howling wind He went deeper into black Deeper into white He sees the stars shining Like nails in the night He felt the healing, healing, healing Healing hands of love Like the stars shiny shiny from above His hand in his pocket His finger on the steel The pistol weighed heavy His heart he could feel Was beating, beating, beating Beating, oh my love Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love My love Saw the hands that build Can also pull down Hands of love
