Alphaville - Missionary Man Lyrics
Im on my way to the other sideIve broken doors and shattered glassIve derailed from the joyrider trainAnd listened to the sounds of the insaneIve looked for wisdom every hourSearched for decay in every flowerIonized all the sacred schemesAnd killed the prophets in my dreamsIve torn james joyce to pieces to make the puzzle fitIve looked for secret messages in every little bitIve travelled through the craters of despairGrabbed the holy signs in every nightmareBroke on through to the other sidePaid the one way fare, paid the one way fareIm on my way to the other side, theres nothing I can do aboutI tried to hide behind perfection and starred in mirrors of deceptionTheres no escape in any way, nowhere to run, nowhere to stayAs long as I cant see the light I got to go to the other sideIve torn james joyce to pieces...Ive torn james joyce to pieces to make the puzzle fitIve looked for secret messages in every little bitIve spoken to the dead, ignorants have called me madIve travelled through the craters of despairGrabbed the holy signs of every nightmareConjured up digression, suffered from depressionPaid the one way fare, paid the one way fareIm a missionary manIm a missionary man
