Gentle Giant Peel The Paint Lyrics

Peel The Paint Lyrics

Free from the start -  
Left to depart -  
Finding the pleasure and the pain in his art.  
Lost in the hush -  
No need to rush -  
Time waits for him, him who creates with the  
brush.  
Colour the brush.  
High in the air -  
His dreams are there -  
Searching for answers he will look everywhere.  
Thinks he has won -  
A place in the sun  
Free from the worries and the ways of everyone.  
Peel the paint  
Look underneath  
You`ll see the same, the same old savage beast.  
Strip the coats  
The coats of time  
And find mad eyes and see those sharpened  
teeth.  
Nothing`s been learned -  
No nothing at all.  
Don`t be fooled, get up before you fall.  
Carnal grave  
Crawling smooth  
Open flesh and you must let him in.  
Glass reflects  
What you are  
It shows the face, the evil face of sin.
