Gift Of Flesh Lyrics by Def Leppard

Gift Of Flesh Lyrics

    I am all destiny, a trade
    A grain of sand
    I am the lesson to be learned
    I take the throat of innocence
    And leave decay
    I stain the way for all to see

    No fear, no voice, no reason
    In God no guiding light
    When all the guilt that's in your head
    Turns its back and plays for dead
    You scorch the earth and torch the sky
    Conscience low with head held high

    Indulge and multiply
    And sacrifice
    As lack of breath chokes underground
    Divulge degenerate
    The darker side
    From windows watch the screaming sky

    [Repeat Chorus]

    When all the guilt that's in your head
    Turns its back and plays for dead
    You scorch the earth and torch the sky
    Conscience low with head held high

    From all the truth comes all the shame
    The curse of flesh just takes its aim
    On hallowed ground and tortured sky
    Walk in fear with spirits high
