Killing Joke - Gratitude lyrics
[Killing Joke - Gratitude lyrics]
Let me tell you about the
Hearts of my people
The core meaning of our tribe
A dream unspoken, a promised kept
The secret comes alive
For all the years I've watched your
Back and you've watched mine
We always knew the clouds would part
And a golden dawn will shine
And when you find yourself
Upon the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink
A gesture or a laugh gratitude
You look at me but I've been looking at you
We only were a mirror to
Show what you could do
Oh innovator, oh enlightened scholar
Play and write
Rewrite the old books, rennaisance
Perform new rites of light
And when you find yourself
Upon the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink
A gesture or a laugh gratitude
The wise will redefine paradise
The farmer and the visionary
A village - simple lives
Adapting to strange seasons in
Certain remote regions
Where no-one has exemption
From total redemption
And when you find yourself
Upon the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink
A gesture or a laugh
A toast for the man who loves
Every hour of every day
And a feast for the friends and
Faces met along the way gratitude
Hearts of my people
The core meaning of our tribe
A dream unspoken, a promised kept
The secret comes alive
For all the years I've watched your
Back and you've watched mine
We always knew the clouds would part
And a golden dawn will shine
And when you find yourself
Upon the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink
A gesture or a laugh gratitude
You look at me but I've been looking at you
We only were a mirror to
Show what you could do
Oh innovator, oh enlightened scholar
Play and write
Rewrite the old books, rennaisance
Perform new rites of light
And when you find yourself
Upon the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink
A gesture or a laugh gratitude
The wise will redefine paradise
The farmer and the visionary
A village - simple lives
Adapting to strange seasons in
Certain remote regions
Where no-one has exemption
From total redemption
And when you find yourself
Upon the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink
A gesture or a laugh
A toast for the man who loves
Every hour of every day
And a feast for the friends and
Faces met along the way gratitude
