Текст песни Jade - The Mission

She came as lolita dressed as venus
And adorned with stars
With her deft allusion and a universe between us
She showed me her skill with words and I showed her my scars

Don't mistake kindness for affection, she said
Don't ever let the attention go to your head
No more let death divide what life can join together
But just remember there is nothing that can last forever

And Jade is benediction
She is silent prayer
And Jade is exaltation
The colours that I wear
And Jade is contradiction
She is naked but never bare
Jade is a work, a work of fiction
Nothing more than castles in the air

The shorter the leash the harder I will pull
My glass is empty when once it was full
I wish I could be Jesus and turn water into wine
'Cause all my grapes have withered, withered on the vine
With a smile like mercury, elusive and fey
There's a beauty in the night that can't be seen by day
She's a barbed wire angel insatiable and cruel
She destroys my resistance like the most dazzling jewel

And Jade is apostasy
Abandoned faith and hope
Jade is hypocrisy
She is kaleidoscope
And Jade is precious stone
Impervious and rare
And Jade will never atone
For the flowers in her fair
And Jade never sleeps alone
There's always someone there
With Jade

To rest their head on her thigh
To make her moist when she is dry
To hold the breath of every sigh
To pledge their life and how to die

To kiss the sleep from her eyes
To dry the tears when she cries
And Jade is all and Jade is none
And Jade is moon and she is sun
And Jade is you and everyone
And she is me and and all I've done
And Jade is lost and she is won
And Jade is the bullet shot from your gun
