Missionary Man lyrics
I m on my way to the other side
I ve broken doors and shattered glass
I ve derailed from the joyrider train
And listened to the sounds of the insane
I ve looked for wisdom every hour
Searched for decay in every flower
Ionized all the sacred schemes
And killed the prophets in my dreams

I ve torn james joyce to pieces to make the puzzle fit
I ve looked for secret messages in every little bit
I ve travelled through the craters of despair
Grabbed the holy signs in every nightmare
Broke on through to the other side
Paid the one way fare, paid the one way fare

I m on my way to the other side, there s nothing I can do about
I tried to hide behind perfection and starred in mirrors of deception
There s no escape in any way, nowhere to run, nowhere to stay
As long as I can t see the light I got to go to the other side

I ve torn james joyce to pieces...

I ve torn james joyce to pieces to make the puzzle fit
I ve looked for secret messages in every little bit
I ve spoken to the dead, ignorants have called me mad
I ve travelled through the craters of despair
Grabbed the holy signs of every nightmare
Conjured up digression, suffered from depression
Paid the one way fare, paid the one way fare

I m a missionary man
I m a missionary man
