Lyrics for ManErg - Sounds Of The 70s Session / 1971

The killer lives inside me: yes, i can feel him move. Sometimes he's lightly sleeping In the quiet of his room, But then his eyes will rise and stare through mine; He'll speak my words and slice my mind inside. Yes the killer lives. Angels live inside me: i can feel them smile... Their presence strokes And soothes the tempest in my mind And their love can heal the wounds That i have wrought. They watch me as i go to fall - Well, i know i shall be caught, While the angels live. How can i be free? How can i get help? Am i really me? Am i someone else? But stalking in my cloisters hang the acolytes Of gloom And death's head throws his cloak into The corner of my room And i am doomed... But laughing in my courtyard play the pranksters Of my youth And solemn, waiting old man In the gables of the roof: He tells me truth... And i too, live inside me and very often Don't know who i am: I know i'm not a hero, well, I hope that i'm not damned. I'm just a man, and killers, angels, All are these: Dictators, saviours, refugees in war and peace As long as man lives... I'm just a man, and killers, angels, All are these: Dictators, saviours, refugees...
