lirik lagu the waterboys - in my time on earth

do you see that young pretender
with the tear-marks on his face
his dark eyes burning when he talks
i knew him in his splendour
i’ve known him in disgrace
who’ll cut him down from this rock

he says bring me my horses
my symbols and my wheels
and we’ll speak with our souls for a while
’cause i’m sick and i’m torn
and i long to be healed
and the truth’s been too long out of style

in my time on this earth
i will speak the secret
in my time on earth
i will tell what is true
in my time on earth
i will say what the heart knows
in my time on earth
i will say i am you

i’m so tired of the sound
my old fingers make
as they tease and torment my guitar
and the man on my screen
is an actor and a fake
yet he preens like a golden superstar

i cried in her arms
when the darkening day was done
and i smelt the burning city in her hair
and the word on the tips
of a thousand million tongues
went unspoken
while a lie sped everywhere

in my time on this earth
i will speak the secret
in my time on earth
i will tell what is true
in my time on earth
i will say what the heart knows
in my time on earth
i will say i am you

now november is here
with its carpet of leaves
and the songs of the dead fill my ears
all the champions are fallen
all the heroes are deceived
and the world they made has disappeared

so let’s tell it like is, man
let’s nail it on the line
let’s be clean with our tongues from here on in
for we’re deep in the heart
of the enemy’s design
just waiting for the breakout to begin

in my time on this earth
i will speak the secret
in my time on earth
i will tell what is true
in my time on earth
i will say what the heart knows
in my time on earth
i will say i am you
in my time on earth
i will say i am you
in my time on earth
i will say i am you
