Sanctuary

(album: Gravity's Rainbow - 1993)

Wise men say there are the facts of life
What ya can't read, you gotta write
What you don't know can hurt you
Welcome to the Wasteland

Haild Mary, hear me now
I'm in need of Sanctuary
Yes, there are hard time to be livin in
Out in the Wasteland
Love's a give away
I fall on my face, like a rebel in the dirt

Sanctuary
Give me some protections
Baby, baby cover me

Feelin lost so afraid
Tryin to keep a handle on the blade
Been such a long time running
Behind these walls inside of me
Ain't nothin clear as far as I see
Looks like a storm cloud breakin
Off in the distance
I hear a drivin beat, drivin beat
Sun goes down like a rebel in the dirt

Sanctuary
Give me some protections
Baby, baby cover me

Sanctuary
Give me some affection
Baby, baby shelter me

Heartache gunna worry me down
I don't like it

Show me mercy, peace of mind
Stand beside me in these troubled times
Give me a reason to believe in now
Love and affection
They seem so far away, so far away
All I can do just to make it thru the night

Sanctuary
Give me some protections
Baby, baby cover me

Sanctuary give me some affection
Baby, baby shelter me
Sanctuary, Sanctuary...
