Songtext zu 'New Man' von Eric Clayton

This is the hour of shadows
This is the stranger seen
Angels dwell, possessing me
In all of man’s insanity

Senses profound – voices and sounds
Faces where we hide ourselves
And places where we’re found
Where are we now? Lost in the crowd
Everything is far away in traces underground

Fragments in dust – scattered, it seems
Faithfully I’m caught between
The nightmare and the dream
Where can I hide the tears?
Where can I quiet the fears?
Where is the path? Where is the healing?
Where do I go from here?

Climbing the walls – scaling the time
Crawling in line, begging and bleeding
For something divine
In and around the corners of time
In between sight, in between sound
In between mind

Finding a place – turning the page
Faces peel away the man
Returning to the stage
Look at my heart, it bleeds
Look in my eyes and see
The reckless hero, wandering
And self-perception driving me

When all the world was broken
And all the love had slipped away
When madness claimed the faithful son
The new man took his place

Then all my dreams were shattered
Then all my hope was lost in vain
Then all my ashes gathered
And the new man, he remained

And all the truth is spoken now
To silence me inside, and drown the
Wakeful anguish of the side effects in time

The side effects in time
