Honest Man

Today I´ve seen the face
of an honest man
I´ve seen the light underneath
the surface and I am scared
I´m not going anywhere
I´m trapped
I can´t be a lover
I´m not humble enough
I have no patience
And I am paying off old debts
old thoughts old values

Seeds planted by dead women
are growing in my soul
suffocating me

I´m tired and I need somebody
to lift me up and take me
to the endless waters
Take me home because
I´ve seen the light underneath
the surface and I am lost
and I´m scared
And I´m not going anywhere
because I´ve seen the face
of an honest man today

Seeds planted by dead women
are growing in my soul
suffocating me
