Jambi

Here from the king's mountain view
Here from the wild dream come true
Feast like a sultan I do
On treasures and flesh never few

But I
I would
Wish it all away
If I
Thought I'd lose you
Just one day

The devil and his had me down
In love with the dark side I'd found
Dabbling all the way down
Up to my neck soon to drown

But you changed that all for me
Lifted me up turned me around

So I
I
I
I
I would
I would
I would
Wish
This
All
Away

Prayed like a martyr dusk 'til dawn
Begged like a hooker all night long
Tempted the devil with my song
And got what I wanted all along

But I
And I would
If I could
Then I would
Wish it away
Wish it away
Wish it all away
Wanna wish it all away

No pressure could hold
Sway
Or justify my kneeling away my center
So if I could I'd wish it all away
If I thought tomorrow would take you away
You're my peace of mind my home my center
I'm just trying to hold on one more day

Damn my eyes
Damn my eyes

Damn my eyes if they should compromise our fulcrum
If wants and needs divide me then I might as well be gone!

Shine on forever
Shine on benevolent sun

Shine down upon the broken
Shine until the two become one

Shine on forever
Shine on benevolent sun

Shine on upon the severed
Shine until the two become one

Divided I wither away
Divided I wither away

Shine down upon the many
Light our way benevolent sun

Breathe in union
Breathe in union
Breathe in union
Breathe in union
Breathe in union
So
As one
Survive
Another day
And season

Silence leach
And save your poison
Silence leach
And stay out of my way
