Silver Platter and A Wooden Stake (song)

Take me by the hand1

Take me to wherever you are going2

To the depths of the ocean3

To the highest peak4

I’ve told you a lot6

But it’s still not enough7

I don’t know what else I can do8

I need to know where we’re going9

Cut right through me11

Take a look inside12

Can you tell me what you see13

Tell me what you see14

I’m dying inside17

Slowly but surely18

My breath will soon leave me19
