Voice of a friend

Light the fire in this castle
Watch it burn into a glow
By the river fear of quite sincere
There´s a draw bridge life support.
There´s a plank we´ll have to crawl upon
But dare not look below
Where the water scene is crystal clean
Where the clouds are raining snow
Hush hush baby
there´s a lot of other ways to choke
We´re in the freak show now
and we´re dealing with a mind of its own
when too many worlds collide
I´d like to think it would be good if we talked
I ask you to not leave my side
I can´t, man,
This is quicksand alone
So I ask you thru the voice of a friend
Why don´t you stay with me
We´re a submarine submerging
Simply smiling at the earth
We´re sending roses to the loved ones
Who had a hand in our rebirth
But still another day I´ll cling to you
For faint directions home
Where we all will sit with open arms
To block the rocks we´ve thrown
Hush hush baby
There´s a lot of other ways to choke
We´re in the freak show now
And we´re dealing with a mind of its own
When too many worlds collide
I´d like to think it would be good if we talk
I ask you to not leave my side
I can´t, man,
This is quicksand alone
So I ask you thru the voice of a friend
"Why don´t you stay with me?"
I ask you thru the voice of a friend
"Why don´t you stay with me?
Stay with me."
Watch it burn into a glow
By the river fear of quite sincere
There´s a draw bridge life support.
There´s a plank we´ll have to crawl upon
But dare not look below
Where the water scene is crystal clean
Where the clouds are raining snow
Hush hush baby
there´s a lot of other ways to choke
We´re in the freak show now
and we´re dealing with a mind of its own
when too many worlds collide
I´d like to think it would be good if we talked
I ask you to not leave my side
I can´t, man,
This is quicksand alone
So I ask you thru the voice of a friend
Why don´t you stay with me
We´re a submarine submerging
Simply smiling at the earth
We´re sending roses to the loved ones
Who had a hand in our rebirth
But still another day I´ll cling to you
For faint directions home
Where we all will sit with open arms
To block the rocks we´ve thrown
Hush hush baby
There´s a lot of other ways to choke
We´re in the freak show now
And we´re dealing with a mind of its own
When too many worlds collide
I´d like to think it would be good if we talk
I ask you to not leave my side
I can´t, man,
This is quicksand alone
So I ask you thru the voice of a friend
"Why don´t you stay with me?"
I ask you thru the voice of a friend
"Why don´t you stay with me?
Stay with me."
