Song language: English
The Spirit |
| Don’t place your trust in foolish promises sworn |
| Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall |
| Street corner justice beware |
| The spirit will find you always be fair |
| The shallow verse once read means nothing at all |
| Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall |
| In lies your heart will not share |
| The spirit inside used without care |
| The spirit that guides you follow it through |
| To the spirit inside you always be true |
| You know you’ll despair |
| If the spirit inside is used without care |
| The battlefield of glory pales into rust |
| The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust |
| No beast alive does compare |
| The spirit beside you everywhere |
| Let not your head be turned by tainted reward |
| And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard |
| Your conscience could not repair |
| The spirit inside used without care |
| 'Cause it will be your shelter, help you how to decide |
| And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide |
| The ash of pages swept before the cruel wind |
| The loss of choices praises no-one will sing |
| No clues to how you will fare |
| The spirit implores you tread where you dare |
| The dust lies thick on casket rich or quite poor |
| Distinction disappears the worm both deplore |
| The candle burns out once more |
| But the spirit inside you won’t be ignored |
