New Direction Lyrics

New Direction lyrics

Out on a limb 

did you see what the cat dragged in 

take it on the chin 

catching fire on a roof of tin 





You've learnt to speak and you're professing 

the right to teach us our direction 

but I found out on close inspection 

true imprefection 





I'm looking for a new direction 

Where in the world am I?

I took the word the word was resurrection 

and then you took me out to climb 





Higher and higher 

higher and higher 

higher and higher 

Kissing the spires 

higher and higher 

higher and higher 

higher and higher 

Souls on fire 





Inside of my head 

I heard what the good Lord said 

"Beware" he said 

if you don't you might end up dead 





You suck the air right out of me 

but though you suck you cannot see 

that life and living are not free 

though you live you do not breathe 





I'm looking for a new direction 

where in the world am I?

I took the word the word was resurrection 

and then you took me out to climb 





(repeat) Higher and higher...





I have changed 

but still my heart 

remains intact 

and true love stays 

but will our hearts 

retain their lack of 





No sense and no direction 

Who in the world am I?

I took the word the word was resurrection 

and then you took me out to climb 





(repeat) Higher and higher...





Start confessing 

Start confessing 





All my evils would be blessed 

if to God I did confess 

Wipe the slate and see if I 

ate the bread and drank the wine 

So as you're leaving I take possesion 

just take the bottle and start confessing
