Chessboards Lyrics

Chessboards lyrics

We in our infancy, led down shining paths 

Shine, shine, shining paths, divine our disillusion 

Face our imperfection, I begin to wonder 

Onion peelings scattered, we've been crying crying. 



Open our eyes and tears run down 

I open my eyes and tears run down 

I look through your mind and tears run down 

And under the skies and tears run down. 



Look at our condition, stand on concrete dias 

Lovers frail and naked move like pawns on chessboards 

I had no idea, I had no conception 

Where have we all come from? Where are we all going? 



Open our eyes and tears run down 

I open my eyes and tears run down 

I look through your mind and tears run down 

And under the skies and tears run down. 



All these changes we shall witness 

I will try to understand 

Share your grief and your confusion, compassion in us cries 

No divine intervention, only moves on black and white 

Great schemes, great schemes are also made of these. 



Open our eyes and tears run down 

I open my eyes and tears run down 

I look through your mind and tears run down 

And under the skies and tears run down.
