Walk down to the harbour
Take a left before the bridge
Pass along the tower
Climb up to the ridge
Then turn right at the rambler
Tell him I said high
He might try to stall you
Just smile and pass him by
Walk along the grey docks
Beyond the palisade
The path along the red rock
Will take you all the way
Climb down the canyon
There's a rope to hold on to
Then wait for the tide to fall
And show the entrance to
Listen to the glistening wet bladderwrack crack in the sun
Listen to the glistening wet bladderwrack crack in the sun
Feel the porous stone between your fingertips turn into gold

The Devil's Left Foot
02:07

Do you take the devil's right hand
Or do you suck up to his left foot
Do you do him in the darkness
Or do you hide him in the light
Is it only your body
Or do you give up wholehearted
Slices of your soul like cold cuts
So you thought you could stay
Out of the game
Keep your hands clean
And your mind sane
So you thought you had
Nothing to gain
Nothing to wish for
Nothing to wage
Did you think you would be better
Better then everybody else
Did you think they had nothing on you
Oh sweet child better think again
Do you take the devils right hand
Or do you suck up to his left foot
Do you do him in the darkness
Or do you hide him in the light
Is it only your body
Or do you give up wholehearted
Slices of your soul like cold cuts

Time Bender

What do you say
To laying your burden down
What weighs on your mind
We must untie
Let yourself fall into the deep
I’m gonna catch you if you don’t land on your feet
Let yourself fall into the deep
I’m gonna catch you if nobody else will
I am the time bender
The soul mender
The weaver
The cut trough rock creeper
I am the time bender

All This Way

You've come all this way
Now don't back away
Listen they're calling your name
Forget your questions
Leave your objections
Just keep on making your way
To the boat in the harbour
Your feet will discover
The road that you must stumble on
Don't worry baby
Know you can trust me
I will be leading you on
To the boat in the harbour
Your feet will discover
The road that you must stumble on
Don't worry baby
Know you can trust me
I will be leading you on
Don't look into the deep
Look into the deep
Just keep your eyes on me
I will show you how to walk along the ridge
Don't look into the deep
Look into the deep
Just one more step
We'll jump at the count of three
One two
Don't back away
You've come all this way
One two three
