Magnum - Spirit Lyrics
Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
Street corner justice beware
The spirit will find you always be fair
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
In lies your heart will not share
The spirit inside used without care
The spirit that guides you follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside is used without care
The battlefield of glory pales into rust
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
No beast alive does compare
The spirit beside you everywhere
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
Your conscience could not repair
The spirit inside used without care
'Cause it will be your shelter, help you how to decide
And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide
The ash of pages swept before the cruel wind
The loss of choices praises no-one will sing
No clues to how you will fare
The spirit implores you tread where you dare
The dust lies thick on casket rich or quite poor
Distinction disappears the worm both deplore
The candle burns out once more
But the spirit inside you won't be ignored

Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
Street corner justice beware
The spirit will find you, always be fair
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
In lies your heart will not share
The spirit inside you used without care
The spirit that guides you, follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside is used without care
The battlefield of glory pales into rust
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
No beast alive does compare
The spirit beside you everywhere
Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
Your conscience could not repair
The spirit inside you used without care
'Cause it will be your shelter, help you how to decide
And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide
The spirit that guides you, follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside you is used without care
The ash of pages swept before the cruel wind
The loss of choices; praises no-one will sing
No clues to how you will fare
The spirit implores you tread where you dare
The dust lies thick on casket rich or quite poor
Distinction disappears, the worm both deplore
The candle burns out once more
But the spirit inside you won't be ignored
The spirit that guides you, follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside you is used without care
Great music and lyrics to live by!!
Great music.
Tremendo Catley
First heard this on the Friday rock show with tommy Vance .
I was fourteen and anything was possible - damn waves of childhood nostalgia nearly choke me out these days
I was 15 too :)
T.V. - play that rock 'n' roll!
For me, it was seeing seeing them support Marillion at Welcome to the Garden Party, at Milton Keynes Bowl, June 28 '86 (how TF can I remember that date so easily)
Should bring back the Friday rock show. Best thing on radio🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Me too...TV on the radio...Thomas the Vance. I feel you brother.
Awesome
only discovered this song recently brilliant
Epic and classy!
great song, from english prog rock and hard rock legends who are so underrated magnum. good and bad ass, we all need that strong spirit in ourselves to guide us. oh and this is off my favourite magnum album chase the dragon.
Why is this song not as famous as "Stairway..."? It's right up there...
... Because it's an anthem of the Illuminati, who like to play war ... ☠️ ... Only ”Kashmir” is comparable to Magnum's masterpieces ...🌌
...it's my Magnum-favorite since '82.... very great, big and bombastic... huiiii, the beginnig, the litle cembalo/harpsicord....!!! ... and "the sacred hour" of this album is big and bigger big too.... (pardon my english)
This is the the best video of this version I've been able to find on YouTube! THANK YOU!! :D
