Ween - The Argus Lyrics
Yesterday we lost our lives, tomorrow we were bornFortune smiled upon us, sacrifice the ArgusAll that he might help us seeMagna eyes the track for miles, looking for diseasePuzzled by the mountains - tricked by the seaand the Argus is practiced compassionwith an eye on you, as one is on mewill the god eye grant his forgivenessand allow he that's lived, a reason to seeCounting days and building walls, bells ring so's to warnAll the signs that guide us, chosen by the ArgusTell me has chosen youLed by form we'll shed our soulTrusting like a childSee the dark face that saved usDrink from his empty eyesand the Argus is practiced compassionwith an eye on you, as one is on mewill the god eye grant his forgivenessletting droplets of light erupt from the sea...Lying in beds of garlic and orchids, he closes an eye, which closes anotherand in sleep he dreams, of watching and looking and feather clouds dancingHe curls up his lid and sleeps...Swirling with visions on man's confusionAll of the work, done just to appease himThe Argus he cries, though love has it's place in the sunIt's only man's fear that carries him on...
