Watch the world with hopeful eyes
staring at its black disguise
hiding-where are you?
Underneath a checkerboard
knights and kings keeping score
crying- can it be true?
Under your purple eyes
black squares and white squares lie
fighting- which one is true?
Under your aqua shirt
hope is killed off by hurt
all on the surface is blue.
Don’t lose heart whatever life brings
you must believe that behind all things
Golden Fingers pull on the strings!
Prop your head up on your arm
in your eyes I see no intent to harm
that’s why I love you.
But the day will surely come
when you will kill or be the one
whom they pour their poison into.
Don’t be their fluffy sheep
sink into places deep
let evil flow through your root.
Hardened heart, inky skull
feast like a cannibal
all of the black squares were true.
Killing hurts and killing stings
but you must believe that behind the scenes
Golden Fingers pull on the strings!
When you’re dark, when you’re mean
doing things that shouldn’t be seen
I will be here with you.
Bodies lie, angels spy
we fall to earth, one day we fly
all of the white squares were true.
In the sky they saw
your hand and they understand
you did what you had to do.
Kill or be killed they know
that’s the way black squares roll
all of their tears were for you.
Don’t lose heart whatever life brings
you must believe that behind all things
Golden Fingers pull on the strings!
