matt johnson’s lyrics are some of my favorite and on random mode, i stumbled upon one of his older songs that seem to hit the core of my being. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Move away from the window and into the light
There are some things in this life that you just cant fight
Its as if the spirits above have cast a little spell upon us
Its as if heaven above is beckoning us
So let us take off our crosses and lay them in a tin
And let our weakness become virtue instead of sin
Our bodies stand naked as the day they were born
And tremble like animals before a coming storm<\/p>\n
Take me beyond love
Up to something above
Upon this bed, between these sheets
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach<\/p>\n
The force of life is rushing through our veins
In and out like the tide it comes in waves
The drops of semen and the clots of blood
Which may, one day, become like us
With outstretched hands reaching beyond love
And up to something above<\/p>\n
Before our juices run cold and our flesh grows old
Let me feed upon your breast and draw closer to your soul
Let me stay with you tonight and Ill offer you my world
Ill take you to the angels if youll take me to myself<\/p>\n
Take me beyond love
Up to something above
Upon this bed, between these sheets
Take me to a happiness beyond human reach<\/p>\n
Beyond the grasp of lust
Beyond the need for trust
Beyond the gaze of the sick and the lame
Beyond the stretch of human pain<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
