Songtext Peter the destroyer (live) Floater

Peter the destroyer (live)

Peter stood there upon the mountain

Surrounded by all the infidels

And as his gaze surveyed the landscape

Crosshairs dancing in his eyes

Peter's cry from the tower

Did not sound so merciful

Letting go. . .

He goes down

He goes down

Peter feels the voice again

Drowning out the icy sky

In his heart is the answer

He loads his rifle with a sigh

Peter's cry from the tower

Shatters on the street below

Letting go. . .

He goes down

He goes down

He goes down

Watch him go down

Peter feels the great release now

And he does not cry

Letting go. . .

Letting go. . .

And he sees them, captains and kings

And he feels the world they bring

Under their blue luxurious sky

And he feels up all inside out

He knows what their wealth is about

Telling himself its all in the name of a friend who's a friend who's a friend who's a friend you'll never know

You'll never know

And he knows, and he flies

And he circles again

Singing

All this time i've been frustrated

All these people are elated

Somewhere there's some kind of contact

Why'd I fall behind?

And he mutters beneath his berath

He says,

we all go down someday

We all go down someday

We all go down someday

But today, yeah today's the day you go down.

And he goes.

He goes down

He goes down

He goes down

Down

Watch him go down

Down, down, down

Shit!

And we all pretended

Thought he never intended

To take upon himself an action

And carry it out

Now we lie in what he knows

Shit!

And we never expected

He'd mind being rejected

He took upon himself an action

And carried it out

Oh my god!

Now we lie in what he knows
