lyrics

NO EARTHLY PLEASURE

(Neill)

You don’t know me, you don’t see me
I am distant, i am fleeting
I move in the empty spaces where dreams go to die
Forever moving in the remove,
There is no bond that can soothe
This burning burning but in vain I try
Forever, forever one step behind
Outside, looking in on the world passing by
No earthly pleasure will satisfy

I’ll eat ‘til im full but not be sated, my hunger will not be abated
No drink can quench my thirst, my throat parched and dry
I swam in the well of sadness,
Locked myself in the halls of madness
Travelled to the distant mountains and

Crossed the bridge of sighs
Woe, cannot touch me cannot make me cry
So, another traveller on this dark ride
And no earthly pleasure will satisfy
Will satisfy, will satisfy
And no earthly pleasure will satisfy

I went to the house of learning
But nothing could ever stop this yearning
Took comfort in a lovers arms but my flesh was a lie
I read the prophets tried to follow every word just rang hollow
Hypocrisy and weakness that I cannot abide
Love, a word thrown around as need’s disguise
God, just people talking to the silent skies
No earthly pleasure will satisfy
