Thought I had a witness
To this crime
Thought I had a witness
Thought we were on the same side
of Becoming�
Then the judges
called in a witness
C�mon�

So then when
Did you then
Begin your
Craving for
White powder
Exotic
Matter that
Cells divide
Arresting time

So in your
Furnace then
You drank my
Tenderness
Feldspar and
Mica then
You thought that
You would own
My temple
of gold

Gotta rise
In the night
Pick myself off the floor
I know now
That it�s over
Had a life
Before
You left me burnin� in
Your petrol emotion
Your petrol emotion
Wanting more

Thought I had a witness
C�mon�
Thought we had a friendship
C�mon�
Thought I heard you
Whispering murder
Thought this witches
Brew was more than
Bullet-proof
But words are like guns
When you shoot the moon
�Cause everybody whispers
C�mon�

Is there anyone?
Is it any wonder�
I�m out the door

Is there any way?
Is there any way forward?
Thought I had a witness
Thought you were you
Thought I was a witness
You could turn to
Not in

Thought I had a witness
To this crime
Thought I had a witness
C�mon�

"I don't necessarily see it as barren, The Rock Garden, and I think the songs, um, take us into a place that I certainly didn't expect. There are little surprises that I find all the time. There is a song called Witness, the gospel choir is on that, and we go back to the Gnostic Gospels and the text talking about being a witness and did you witness Christ teaching. And I started to think about judge and jury and I started to think about crimes against humanity, against each other, stripping it away to a very personal place of crime and the gospel choir becomes very much the jury."
