I ain't crazy but I ain't sane
Stuck with these visions in my brain
Within the church is something real
That my eyes will soon reveal

There rests twelve pictures on the walls
I see in them something more
A map left here to guide us
A map not seen by all
Only my colour blindness
Allows me to see the secret hidden there

What can it mean I do not know
Something hidden I am sure
A thing of portent I don't know
A mystery I know not more
A map to guide me I know not wherе
To something secret, should I carе?
I must think on what to do
Perhaps discuss it, just us two
As a priest, my path is known
Though as a man I stand alone

I was old and lonely so I changed it all
Took a woman oh so homely, I'll let her make the call

We'll work on this to find its meaning
Pictures don't always tell the story
Alone I feel I must be dreaming
I need help to solve this mystery

First, we need to make a plan
A meeting of minds
Find out together what we can
A meeting of minds

Once we have a plan we'll go
A meeting of minds
To a place, we do not know
A meeting of minds

First into the mountains, we have to go
Across hilltops and beautiful valleys
Our progress is slow because of the snow
Our lamps pale in the shadows
Through the sunshine and the rain
Soiled and sweated all the same

Our work is soon rewarded our hopes are raised
The article defies description, a lamp, not even glazed

With the lamp are writings in a language that I know
The written words are faded but oh so legible to me

Within the writings that we share
A meeting of minds
With each page we must take care
A meeting of minds
Where tales of heresy unfold
A meeting of minds
A glowing relic oh so old
A meeting of minds

How frail our grasp of history
Betrayal right from the Holy See
Denial of what was meant to be
A wicker man, never a deity
Rage is something new to me rage, I feel let down
Rage so demoralizing so many lies so compromising
Rage at all the lies they told me, they told me
Rage a life wasted embellished with untruths to guide me
Rage!
