Lyrics
Body Blow
© 2005 by Mike Lickiss
Verse 1 Our time is now no words to be spoken
Say your prayers, as dreams now are broken
As we bow down to the hollow ones
Who give us this token of their false love
Stand up tall as blows rain down upon you
Wear your crown let evil recognize you
Sacrifice now to be given
What a price for fools to be forgiven
Chorus The clock strikes twelve your journeys done
Feel your body come undone
No more fear no more desire
Walk with me son into the fire
Verse 2 Once you laughed at those in supplication
Help me please don’t like my destination
My time is now, my soul still burns
Life runs out but for these things I yearn
For I have dreams I have desires
Want to try, help me fly higher
You go by now, sooner than you know
Your time will come you’ll feel the body blow
Chorus The clock strikes twelve your journeys done
Feel your body come undone
No more fear no more desire
Walk with me son into the fire
Forget everything you love
You are welcomed into dust
So much time wasted away
Why must your life end this way?
Verse 3 Say goodnight inexhaustible youth
Price to pay, do what you must do
There is no time that would be enough
Body blow returns you to dust
