Fire Into Ice
Secret Service

Cutting Corners, 1982

When I came I was a stranger
Spanish boots just walking by
At your house I saw that danger
So alone and terrified

Can’t you see me bleeding?
Can’t you hear me call?
Can’t you see what you were reading
What I’ve written on the wall?

    Nothing ever scares me like the silence
    Turning all your fire into ice
    Candles that kept talking by the violence
    Twisted words another sacrifice

When I came I was much stronger
Touching souls and tasting moon
Shadows now seem so much longer
Selling raise from door to door

Don’t you know I’m meaning
Don’t you care at all
Don’t you find that make believing
Ways we’re tryin’ to learn to fall

    Nothing ever scares me like the silence
    Turning all your fire into ice
    Candles that kept talking by the violence
    Twisted words another sacrifice
 

Flash In The Night
Cutting Corners, 1982

As a break of dawn came closer
All my hopes seemed so forlorn.
There’re misty sounds of laughter
And the light eluded all.
And my despair was caught emotion
A face just paly true
Shadows in blue.

A flash in the night . . .

In the changing of the seasons
Releasing one lost name.
And the scar once healed forever
Dissolving in the rain.
A twig snapped in the clearing
A glimpse on golden skin {or A glimpse of golden scheme}
My face within

A flash in the night . . .

And my despair was caught in motion
A face just paly true

A flash in the night . . .
