Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Andy Warhol's modern man builds a castle in the air
The deck is stacked but his house of cards
Grows as high as the market will bearIt won't take much to make his ship of dreams
Come crashing to the ground
You just wait for the wheel of fate to turn
The wind of the wolf is gonna blow it all downShallow rivers of fashion run on courses tried and true
Masses dive in and it washes 'em down
Makes 'em feel like they're all brand newA blinding hatred caused by fear
Is showing in their eyes
They want their truth all black and white
But a rainbow never tells no lies to aStranger in a strange land
What's a man supposed to do?
I'm just a stranger in a strange landWhen will the light come shining through?
When will the light shine through?
Let it shine, let it shine, oh, shine onTo feed the heart's addiction
In answer to my soul
It may not be the best of worlds
But it's the only one I knowIn the shadow of Damocles' atomic sword
We learn to live with fear
Stringing out lives of quiet desperation
We're all just strangers hereRiding along on the razor edge
Burned in the acid fall
Groping in the darkness, searching for a way
To fill the empty space inside
And between us allStranger in a strange land
What's a man supposed to do?
When a stranger's in the strange landWe're just waiting and watching and wondering
When will the light come shining
The light come shining
The light come shining throughWhen will the light shine through?
Shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
When will the light shine through?
