The Beginning
Flashguns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lower now than I've ever been before
But I know in my heart this outside land go deeper
Look great I feel great
Look dead I feel dead
So I go to my mother and I go to my father
And I go to my lover and

Who sacrificed the lie
But now I find something
Better than I ever had

On a train in a tibetan parkway
Strange feeling coming over me
Life's easy when we look at it backwards
It's a shame that we have to live it forth
We have to live it forth and

Who sacrificed the lie
But now I find something
Better than I ever had

Oh, maybe I left behind
The way of thinking
Now I look to the beginning

Who sacrificed the lie
But now I find something
Better than I ever had

Oh, maybe I left behind




But now I find something
Look to the beginning
