Exciter A (Dream on, Shine, The Sweetest Condition)
"Dream On"
As your bony fingers close around me Long and spindly Death becomes me Heaven can you see what I see
Hey you pale and sickly child You're death and living reconciled Been walking home a crooked mile
Paying debt to karma You party for a living What you take won't kill you But careful what you're giving
There's no time for hesitating Pain is ready, pain is waiting Primed to do it's educating
Unwanted, uninvited kin It creeps beneath your crawling skin It lives without it lives within you
Feel the fever coming You're shaking and twitching You can scratch all over But that won't stop you itching
Can you feel a little love Can you feel a little love
Dream on dream on
Blame it on your karmic curse Oh shame upon the universe It knows its lines It's well rehearsed
It sucked you in, it dragged you down To where there is no hallowed ground Where holiness is never found
Paying debt to karma You party for a living What you take won't kill you But careful what you're giving
Can you feel a little love Can you feel a little love
Dream on dream on
"Shine"
Put on your blindfold And a dress that's tight And come with me On a mystery night Open your eyes
Follow our stars under a painted sky We'll leave the world behind We're learning to fly We used to get by
Forget the pictures on your TV screen We'll steal the visions That you keep for your dreams You can turn me on
I was blind and I saw the light My angel coming In a brilliant white Shine for me
You've been hanging from a rope of mediocrity Strung up by your insecurities You can shine for me Somebody has to Shine for me It's difficult not to Shine for me
Follow our stars under a painted sky We'll leave the world behind We're learning to fly We used to get by
Forget the pictures on your TV screen We'll steal the visions That you keep for your dreams You can turn me on
You've been hanging from a rope of mediocrity Strung up by your insecurities You can shine for me Somebody has to Shine for me It's difficult not to Shine for me Somebody has to Shine for me It's difficult not to Shine for me
