Just keep laughing it off They left you standing in a cold place They left you standing in the dust, oh no I can only imagine what you went through When you sold your faith for luck You walked around under the shadows and the fog Their bony fingers always covering their eyes They kissed your lips and put a bag over your body But you never let them bury your mind Just keep laughing it off Do you believe me now I know it's to believe in anything You are the fire that should have gone out
But got bigger and stronger in the wind And a spark still burned on And one by one we all caught fire With concentrated love Don't fear the shock, just grab the wire You are beautiful and strong, don't let anyone tell you otherwise The gods are singing all your songs, you can see it in the evening sky When you had nothing you had it all And you never gave up anything Except for overflowing love Like a Detroit angel with red wings
