and the argus is practiced compassion

with an eye on you as one is on me

will the god grant his forgiveness

and allow he that's lived a reason to see

Counting days and building walls, bells ring so's to warn
All the signs that guide us, chosen by the Argus
Tell me has chosen you
Led by form we shed our soul
Trusting like a child
See the dark face that saved us
Drink from his empty eyes
and the argus is practiced compassion
with an eye on you, as one is on me
will the god eye grant his forgiveness
letting droplets of light erupt from the sea...
Breakdown: Hammer G-C-C and strum C (sounds better on barre chords)
G
lying in beds of garlic and orchid
G
he closes an eye
G
which closes another
Em
and in sleep he dreams
Em
of watching and looking
Em
and feather clouds dancing
Em G
he curls up his lid and sleeps
G
swirling with visions on man's confusion
G
all of the work
G
done just to appease him
Em
the argus he cries
Em
though love has it's place in the sun
Em G
it's only man's fear that carries him on
