I have fallen from grace
And my ashes are scattered
No longer of passion and flesh
My flame is alive
Though my wings have been shattered
They laid my body to rest

My spirit is breathing
My senses are pure
Like reincarnation
My soul will endure, ohhhh

Back on earth
Back on earth
Back on earth
The spirit - it never lets go

Like fountains of sorrow the faces are crying
I'm witnessing all of their pain
Death is so final for only the living
The spirit will always remain

Bury me deep just to cover my sins
My soul is redeemed as the journey begins

Back on earth
(you feel me)
Back on earth
(reveal me)
Back on earth
The spirit it never lets go

Another dimension, a river of light
I'm twisting,
I'm turning,
My soul is in flight

Back on earth
(you feel me)
Back on earth
(reveal me)
Back on earth
(still breathing)
Back on earth
(reliving)

    This is a great Ozzy song... one of the best. The lyrics are great and the music is haunting... even though this is off the "Ozzmosis" cd which came out in 1995...it still rocks...
