Lyrics
[Intro: Lily Cornford] Oh thou, who gives sustenance to the universe From whom all things proceed To whom all things return Unveil to us the face of the true spiritual sun Hidden by a disc of golden light That we may know the truth And do our whole duty As we journey to thy sacred feet [Verse 1] Well, I said, "Lily, oh, Lily, I don't feel safe I feel like life has blown a great big hole through me" [Pre-Chorus] And she said, "Child You must protect yourself You must protect yourself I'll show you how with fire" [Chorus] Gabriel before me Raphael behind me Michael to my right Uriel on my left side In the circle of fire [Verse 2] I said, "Lily, oh, Lily, I'm so afraid I fear I am walking in the Vale of Darkness" [Pre-Chorus] And she said, "Child Take what I say With a pinch of salt And protect yourself with fire" [Chorus] Gabriel before me Raphael behind me Michael to my right Uriel on my left side In the circle of fire [Interlude] [Chorus] Who's on the left? Who's on the right? Gabriel before me Raphael behind me Michael to my right On the right Uriel on my left side Get the devil behind us [?] In the circle of fire Get them off to the right Gabriel before me Raphael behind me On the right Michael to my right On the right, wow Uriel on my left side In the circle of fire
