Rock And Role (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill

Watch for the silent moments only waiting to be saved

Wait for the Liemaker; he comes again

And sinks his barbs through honesty;

Roll him over with all possible speed

Don't let him touch you with the candle of his need

Or let him be hysterically ravaging your grave

You are emotion picture re-run at single frame

You are the instant playback no chance to change;

Smile and smile living diary

Roll you over before it's too late:

Before you're exposed to the monochrome phase

Which can relate only fear and hate through the haze

I am the automated arrow homing on the heat of pain;

I am the Peacebringer It is so strange

I feed on grief and grieve through joy

So roll me over and turn aside;

Don't let me look into the mirror of your eyes

For fear that I

May steel the life

You gradly gave
