Confession Lyrics by The Colourfield

Deception

1987

Well I
Sat around on the 15th floor
Amongst the factory clouds
Feeling free to fall
With a twisted, burning, bending head
The police cruised by
The sky turned red
I moved away from the barricades
Where people hung their heads in shame
I kissed goodbye to an ugly youth
Leapt off the world and followed you

The sweetest sight
Was burning bright
In your eyes
You took my hand
And led me to
A magic sign

And we found love on a stained glass plate
You touched my head and gave me faith
And said I must be strong in this world of hate
You kissed my lips and took my breath away

Well we soldiered on for 15 days
And met a million people on our way
We held their hands to steal their land
And turned our bibles into building plans
We gave them beads and a TV set
And turned their babies into fighting men
We took no blame for the lives we lost
Because we did it all in the name of god

The greatest thing
Was a newborn king
With a million by his side
We were high on prayers
Climbing golden stairs
When we took the magic ride

And we found love on a stained glass plate
You touched my head, you gave me faith
And said I must be strong in this world of hate
You kissed my lips and took my breath away

We found love on a golden day
You touched my head, you gave me faith
And said I must be strong in this world of hate
You kissed my lips and took my breath away

Took my breath away
You touched my head
And gave me faith
You said I must be strong
In this world of hate
So kiss my lips and take my breath away
Kiss my lips and take my breath away
