Killing Joke - Gratitude Lyrics

Let me tell you about the hearts of my people
Let me tell you of the meanings of our tribe
A dream unspoken, a promised kept the secret comes
Alive

For all the years I've watched your back and you've watched mine
We always knew the clouds would part and a golden dawn will
Shine

And when you find yourself alont the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, and drink, a gesture or a laugh
Gratitude

You look at me but I've been looking at you
We only were a mirror to show what you could do
O innovator, o enlightened scolar play and write
Rewrite the old books, rennaisance perform new rites of light

And when you find yourself alont the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, and drink, a gesture or a laugh
Gratitude

The wise will redefine paradise
Farmer and the visionary, a village - simple lives
Adapting to strange seasons in certain remote regions
Where no-one has exemption from total redemption

And when you find yourself alont the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink, a gesture or a laugh
And a toast for the man who loves every hour of every day
And a feast for the friends and faces met along way
Gratitude
