Studio version appears on "Kamikaze planning holidays" Lp (2011)

lyrics

I’m not a prophet that you can trust when you please,
And I’m not a preacher that you let talk for your ease.

If I were the relation your life should reach,
Why did you let me down in a low breach ?
And if I spoke the needed words to wake your soul,
Now let them work things out and keep their role.

You made me the heart of your escape fantasy,
But I was not a vision or whatever, only “me”.

I’m not a model that you follow when you please,
And I’m not the poet you may once quote, but not seize.

If I were some ideal that your life should greet,
How did you go this blind to the one you wished ?
And if I stole a miracle you wouldn’t preserve,
Why did you get so high for the love we served ?

You made me the heart of your escape fantasy,
But I was not a vision or whatever, only “me”.
And ever since you decided to stop your dreaming,
I’ve got to deal with what you scarred as a real thing...

And I’m not giving up on you,
No, I’m not giving up on living.
Now my blood knows what to do,
Yet it’s still rushing for your loving.

Well, you may be a “gift from God”,
But his message I haven’t got...
And my blood knows what I’m feeling,
When it’s flowing for a living.
