All I ever need is the truth but all I ever want is affection

Masquerade as Jesus Christ and suffer the crucifixion

Lips that speak of love eternal come heal my savaged skin

Cast aside all thought of revenge searching for Nirvana within

And God only knows my belief holds strong

That wisdom comes when the heart suffers long

And I'm shedding tears for Judas a kiss may betray

And I'm on the side of angels on the heels of a dream a ghost

to lay



A hard rain may fall and a cruel wind may blow

The moon may be pale and I may never know

The need for silence but I can see hope in the wind in the

rain

Lay belief on me my angel child



The actor and the poet martyr castles carved in sand

Delight and the promise of Eden lay in the touch of your hand

As sweet as sin sweeter still the taste

The way of all flesh lay me to waste

And heaven knows that the meek shall inherit the earth

Lay belief on me my angel child



Behold a silent ocean in a precious grain of sand

And if I have to explain then you'll never understand

My petals are strewn scattered by the breeze

It's whispered in the wind echoes through the trees

Love's a disease and it rips me apart

Come heal my ravaged heart

Lay belief on me my angel child
