Gospel X

Text and music: Lilou & John

Why did you bring me the starlight
Sword and shield of the night?
Why did you ride through the ages
Pilgrim who carries the light?

Why did you give me the passion
A nephilim child of the west?
Tranquil, my heart is tranquil
Beating for peace in my chest!

How far is the ride to Jerusalem
The night ride to Betlehem?
Fly like the bolt of a crossbow
Ride for the children of men!

Why did you bring back the starlight
Why did you fight back the lies?
Is there a prize for the living
Or just for the dead in disguise?
