	作曲 : Abilities, Eyedea
	On this I stand
	Two sets of footprints placed ahead of the dirt softened from tear drops
	And overlooking the earth as the son of the moon
	Protected by a forcefield of pure thought.. On this I stand
	A rally of unemployed disgrunt of words on for long journeys to somewhere
	Somewhere that only causes me pain as I strain my soul crammin into rightness
	So I can bring some there,
	I bleed the blood of a cold stone that rolls without a shadow
	I'm only deep enough to realize that I'm shallow
	My head I keep it up but its hard to keep it straight
	When you don't believe in love,
	And you just cant cope with hate
	Metal rust, leaves turn into dust,
	As the difference between love and lust clarifies as trust
	If you only had an hour to sum your whole life up
	Would you spend that hour sayin that an hour ain't enough
	I've mistaken the shield that bound me a cowardess
	Now I'm faithful to the wind but compared to it I'm powerless
	The first step was made, and it was a fair accomplishment
	The pond was sittin still, so I threw a rock in it
	And as my reflection rippled it all became clear
	The seasons always change so there's no reason for fear
	We made an autobiography of our pivotal years
	Its all I got and I'm giving it you because I care
	A lot of the time humans are hard to stay susistent
	Self-projecting state of falsehood
	Were either too close to our image to stay objective in our conception,
	Or too far away to be subjective in any matter
	This only widens our void in social conformity
	Introduced to our souls at birth and so I write.
	I don't write without the intention of objectivity
	Or attention in the image
	But only as an unright directional bridge
	Between the several flowing tunes scripture
	Reality is present in countless space and time
	See I don't write for the future,
	I write about the future, for the present
	I write with my past, about the future, for the present.
	On this I stand
	The oasis of the limbo adjacent to my generation, facing out the window
	Waiting for some ventilation, patient while the wind blows
	Faceful in its demonstration, overall innovation.
	On this I stand
	A fountain of youth sovereignty, found in syllables more than a pound of flesh
	Deep breath of achievement, a dream and a wake up call
	Another haul of the quest.
	On this I stand
	Another loved civilization.
	On this I stand
	The purity of creation.
	On this I stand
	A paradigm for self.
	On this I stand
	I thank you for your help.
	On this I stand
	My first born child.
	On this I stand
	Something for now.
	On this I stand
	Life, love, death and hate.
	On this I stand
	And helmwood, glad you could relate. Peace...
