It

Michael Kiske

When you say your love is outrageous

I'm not trying matching with you

Fear eats through the ages

Swallows all good that we do

When IT comes close tonight

I grab as much of IT as I can get my hands on



The sound gets clear and bright

And bitterness is far



I understand: time demands pain

And constantly we kill all youth

In unison we sing in vain

If we don't care for truth



Still we paint our intentions blue-ish

Life-fakes get colored pink

It's the days of the foolish

Where men steal the sky with a blink



When IT shows what's inside

We take IT or leave IT or just roll on with our lives

Superficialized

We can't hear when IT calls



I understand: time demands pain

And constantly we kill all youth

In unison we sing in vain

If we don't care for truth



Let's pretend the circle is cornered

and stones will turn into gold

Let's try to make the sea turn red

Or to grow up before we get old



When IT comes close tonight

I grab as much of IT as I can get my hands on



The sound gets clear and bright

And bitterness is far



I understand: time demands pain

And constantly we kill all youth

In unison we sing in vain



If we don't care for truth



If IT is IT, IT saves the day

If IT is not we earn our pay

Is IT was IT has seemed to say

We get IT anyway!
