Lyrics The Flower Kings

The Flower Kings

Love Is The Only Answer

I was there in the beginning, I will be the last to leave

And I´m moving through the ages with the comfort of `God´s speed`

There is no such thing as perfect, so I might apologize

That I didn´t see the darkness in your eyes

I´m a man with many colours, I´m a man of many names

I´m a rebel and a teacher. I am no one just the same

If I give away the answers, you have questions put on hold

But I didn´t see the weakness in your soul...

Love is the only answer – Love´s what you feel

In the end you can invest in love but never ask for payback

I´ve been traveling every roadside. I´ve been sailing every sea

I´ve been circling like an orbit around that cosmic Christmas tree

You think science is a fact, but it´s just a childish game

Cause they never saw the greatness of the game.

In the end you can invest in love but never ask for payback

So the craziness begin, on a cold rail straight to hell

There are 10 more rounds to go, we´re just waiting for the bell

Not much time for smalltalk now, besides the hammer & the nail

Bringing out the monsters from the shadows - ´t never fails

„Where did all the goodness go? - I feel alone“

„Suddenly they´re just crawling out like from under the stone“

Love is the only answer – Love´s what you feel

In the end you can invest in love, but never ask for payback – no Jack

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole

It´s like the world just collapsed in this space

If you look for a place for redemtion – You´re not likely to find it in this place

I´ve always looked for good in everyone. I´ve seen so many places under the sun

Now – bail me out or let me down. It´s just you and me and time

I´m a king who lost his crown. I bid you bread and wine!

Where did all the goodness – where did all Love go?

Where is all the kindness – can love find a home?

First you build me up – then break me down.

I don´t want your money – I just need your time

World is getting older now! World is getting colder now!

Egos getting bigger – It´s a playground for the wicked!

No one is really listening – No room for the reasoning!

The cash mashine just opened up it´s jaws & now it´s giggling

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole

It´s like the world just collapsed in this space

If you look for a place for redemtion – You´re not likely to find it in this place

I was here in the beginning, I will be the last to leave.

You´ve been told so many times before that truth will set us free.

But still you fabricate your dreams – upon greed and lust and fame.

Bring shame upon your name – it´s so damn hard to elevate.

If I speak to you with clarity and you read me back alright.

So that words may go like shafts of light – Into the deepest night.

There´s no way out of here!
