Songtexte Souls - Hugh Cornwell

Just like an Indian I climb
Offering sacrifice
Up to the temple on the hill
Can human heart suffice?
Can I survive the world alone?
Without a well within my home
Without my one idol's love
Shining down upon me

She eats souls
She eats souls

All that I'm offering's the heart
That's all there is to give
With all this heat surrounding me
My deity forgives

And if she needs it every day
I climb the steps my savage way
Uttering incantations up
Up above me

She eats souls
She eats souls

Can I survive the world alone?
Without a well within my home
Without my one idol's love
Shining down upon me

She eats souls
She eats souls
She eats souls
She eats souls
