Search For Perfection Lyrics - Singles - Paradox

[How, through their beliefs the Cathars tried to achieve a state of Perfection] 

Search! 

We can't eat no flesh no fowl 

Sleeping around is out 

Women are against the rules 

Fornication frowned upon 

We live by the law 

Wrapped in the world 

Nobody wavers 

Nobody strays 

Lonely nights and lonely days 

Are looked upon as right 

But lonely days and lonely nights 

Are a symbol of our fight 

No cause has lived 

So strict in its rules 

A life filled with pain 

A path to our God 

A road to the right 

Long does it wind 

Along way to go, way to go, evermore 

Search for perfection 

Our creed self control 

Search for perfection 

Our life for the cause 

Priests talk like Jesus wrote 

Everything is right 

We talk of John the Lord 

We think were right 

Our John the brave 

Lights up our way 

Teach by example 

Shake off the scorn 

Join us this day 

We have the strength 

Our road is straight, to the Lord it's the way 

Search for perfection 

Our creed self control 

Search for perfection 

For this we'll die 

No other way is any good 

Life doesn't last 

Our belief is heaven sent 

Forgive us our past 

What we do now is good 

Not what we did then 

We dedicate ourselves to help 

Our welfare comes last 

Follow our road 

Find a new world 

A search for perfection 

In the eyes of the Lord 

Join us on our way 

Help us through this day 

Try to break away from the roman captivity 

Search for perfection 

A perfect mind 

Search for perfection 

A perfect life
