  • Lyric
    Song Info:
    Written By Billy Corgan. 'Lyric' was the second and final single off Mary Star of The Sea. It was also the last single for Zwan ever. There is rumour that Billy did not want to give out a Call Out Research Hook for the song to radio stations. If this is actually true, it could explain why it was not really played on commercial radio. It may also have to do with the break up of the band.

    Recorded:
    Summer/Fall 2002

    Available On:
    Mary Star of the Sea
    Lyric Single

    Video Info:
    Directed By Bruce Dickinson. The video consists of various shots of the band playing guitars on the streets of Chicago, with adoring fans in tow. It also has shots of Chicago's skyline, as well as Zwan dancing with fans inside the Metro. There is also a 'protest' where fans are holding up signs with positive messages like "charity" and "hope".

    Here comes my faith to carry me on
    A faith, not a grave
    A fight to to stay strong
    So I stand accused of playing numb
    I know it as wrong
    For I give my strength
    I give my heart
    Take these chains
    And hold them as ours
    For I must shine
    And I will a star
    In a season all mine A lyric, a time, a crusade, a line
    One minute, a friend, a road without end
    A lyric, a time, a crusade, a line
    One minute, a friend, a road without end

    So here is the view
    I cast about
    I'm leaving no room
    For you to get out
    You'll never get out

    Dove, can't you cry without an aside
    Be warm invite
    I need you as my way
    Across my life
    To spend these years
    Create a new thought
    For I give you strength
    And offer my heart
    Take these chains
    And hold them as ours
    For I must star
    And I will shine
    In a season all mine

    A lyric, a time, a crusade, a line
    One minute, a friend, a road without end
    A lyric, a time, a crusade, a line
    One minute, a friend, a road without end
    A lyric, a time, a crusade, a line
    One minute, a friend, a road without end
    A lyric, a time, a crusade, a line
    One minute, a friend, a road without end
    A road without end
