Peter Gabriel
English musician who first came to fame as the lead vocalist of the progressive rock group Genesis.
I’m hearing right and wrong so clearly.
There must be more than this.
It’s only in uncertainty
That we’re naked and alive.
So what's one little kiss, one tiny little touch?
Aah, he's wanting it so much.
I swear that this is royal blood, running through my skin.
Oh, can you see the state I'm in?
Kiss it better, kiss it better.
Don't give up
'cos you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet.
Don't give up
I know you can make it good...
Don't give up.
You know it's never been easy.
Don't give up.
'Cause I believe there's a place,
There's a place where we belong.'
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive.
From the pain come the dream.
From the dream come the vision.
From the vision come the people.
From the people come the power.
From this power come the change.
All my instincts, they return.
And the grand façade, so soon will burn.
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside.
Turning the tide, you are on the incoming wave.
Turning the tide, you know you are nobody's slave.
Life carries on
In the people I meet
In everyone that’s out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
In the rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on and on.
I caught sight of my reflection;
I caught it in the window.
I saw the darkness in my heart;
I saw the signs of my undoing.
They had been there from the start,
And the darkness still has work to do.
The knotted chord's untying.
They're heated and they're holy.
Oh they're sitting there on high.
So secure with everything they're buying.
