Exile Lyrics - Singles - Kari Rueslatten

i just want to lay myself down 

drink the illusions and let it all float away 

into the river of voices 

one of them will speak and tell me where to go 

i packed my thoughts and visions 

headed for the light on the other side 

although consoling was a myth 

the tunnel was a con 

i ran - but i never turned back 

i have deported my own life 

into this foolish splendour 

i have brought the beauty of a soul 

cold and dark as the last day 

is the image of the dream 

that made it all worth-while 

in exile 

if there is a sign out there hiding 

come to me now or forever hold your peace 

you'll find me in my room in the guesthouse 

riding clouds that are hard to please 

when there is a fight i will be there 

it feels so good to do what one should not do 

and i play i gamble and stay 

i look - but i never turn back
