House of God on Every Street

House of God on every street fair maiden
House of God on every street fair maiden
Which is my own street in this town, which is our home oh wise one
What is the meaning of life, what is the story of your arrival
I thought I was the creator, the one who made them
I thought I was the creator, the one who made them
No, my child created me, she is the one who brought me forth
This is the sin of God, please forgive me, my dear sister
If we eat poison, we will die, this is for our own good
The beginning is not the end
What role do I play, what role do you play oh wise one
What is the meaning of life, what is the story of your arrival
What good is a temple without worship
Your mind is full of gossip, oh shameless one
Like a monkey on a branch, come down oh dear sister
We are the ones who build and destroy oh dear one
What is creation, what is destruction, what is a mother in this
What is the light of the soul oh wise one
What is the meaning of life, what is the story of your arrival
If we truly understand, then that is the end
If we fail to understand, then that is the philosophy
The body searches for water but finds only thirst oh dear one
I search for myself and find knowledge oh dear one
What is truth, what is illusion
In this, what is food and what is poison, oh wise one
What is the meaning of life, what is the story of your arrival
House of God on every street fair maiden
House of God on every street fair maiden
