Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Working through death's pain
Last night, I swear I felt your touch
Gentle and warm, the hair stood on my arm
How?
How?
How?
[Verse 2]
Oh, show me the way, show me the way
Show me the way to shake a memory
Show me the way, show me the way
Show me the way to shake a memory
[Verse 3]
I flipped my forelock, I twitched my withers
I reared and bucked
I could not put my rider aground
All these fine memories are fuckin' me down
[Verse 4]
I dreamed it was a dream that you were gone
I woke up feelin' so ripped by reality
Yeah, love is the King of the Beasts
And when it gets hungry it must kill to eat
Yeah, love is the King of the Beasts
A lion walkin' down city streets
[Verse 5]
I fell back asleep some time later on
And I dreamed the perfect song
It held all the answers like hands laid on
I woke halfway and scribbled it down
And in the morning, what I wrote I read
It was hard to read at first but here's what it said
[Verse 6]
Eid ma clack shaw zupoven del ba mertepy ven seinur cofally ragdah
Eid ma clack shaw zupoven del ba mertepy ven seinur cofally ragdah
[Verse 7]
Oh, show me the way, show me the way
Show me the way to shake a memory
Uh, show me the way, show me the way
Show me the way to shake a memory
Eid ma clack shaw zupoven del ba mertepy ven seinur cofally ragdah
Oh, show me the way, show me the way
Show me the way to shake a memory
Ah, show me the way, show me the way
Show me the way to shake a memory
