Holy man to be,
Can you fill your life with laughter
Holy man to be,
Why do you sit alone,
Holy man to be,
You've designed into a martyr,
Holy man to be,
Why you are alone,

To escape this world you see,
No,
To transcend your mind and body,
No,

Holy man to be,
Getting by on bread and water,
You're in ecstasy,
Grieving on your own,

You can dance until you bleed,
No,
You can sing until you scream,
No,

Can you look,
Do you feel,
Feel your life's not enough,

Can you love,
Do you feel,
Feel your life's not enough,

You can dance until you bleed,
No,
You can sing until you scream,
No,
You can love,
You can feel,
Feel your life isn't real,
You can lie,
You can say,
Say it's all,
All you need,
Fear this day,
Day is bought,
Mourn his light,
Light is seeing,
Mourn his lake,
Lay his door,
Light is love,
Light is dear,
No,
No,
No,
No.
