I. First Of | |
The Last Long before the living past | |
Had ripped it all apart | |
Something still remained | |
Until It flashed back to the start | |
Where it stands, nobody saw | |
Behind the blackest eyes | |
Show them how you're stronger now | |
It pays to advertise wisely | |
Day after day with you in my head | |
I said some things | |
I shouldn't have said | |
For reasons unknown that | |
I now forget | |
I gave you no love, which | |
I now regret | |
What I'd give to hear again | |
Those everlasting songs | |
Why did all the accidents | |
Contrive to fall at once? | |
Only day after day with you in my thoughts | |
I never knew time was so short | |
For once in my life | |
I wasn't alone | |
With blood on my hands, | |
How could | |
I have known? | |
Used to be the great white hope | |
Once I walked on water | |
Now I barely stay afloat | |
Balance out of order | |
With every sympathy worn away | |
Who can I return to now? | |
For the time that | |
I have left | |
I scan that cold horizon | |
Searching for a kindred soul, | |
Someone to rely upon | |
We disconnected and | |
Heaven sent | |
Sheltered in dead air, | |
Hidden everywhere | |
II. The Wrong | |
Host The sky lights up above | |
America The world is lost but loves | |
America When the eyes of children | |
See the ones left standing | |
And the rest begin to finally understand | |
The hand of | |
God defends | |
America And who would not defend | |
America? We've got light on our side | |
We're in pole position | |
So praise the | |
Lord And raise the ammunition high | |
Raise it high | |
Hide where you can | |
We will shoot you where you stand | |
I've walked a million miles | |
Upon an open road | |
And once in every while | |
Without the will to carry on | |
Hours held me too long | |
In one location | |
An old familiar tale, | |
A glory to behold | |
A work of genius, | |
The greatest story ever sold | |
As you sign on the line, | |
As you do what you're told | |
All you sell is your soul | |
I've been this way before | |
I've seen it many times | |
Collision on the track | |
The fiction turning into fact | |
No-one dares to look back | |
Best you start to prepare | |
For the harvest ahead | |
All you lose is yourself | |
III. Nocturne | |
I'm brought to life with a series of shocks | |
I realise that you are gone from my life | |
And still | |
I cling to the fear of the dark | |
Don't follow them for they don't care how you are | |
And I'm finding a way of being | |
Accepting life all alone | |
And I'm hoping | |
I'll wake up seeing | |
A way to live on my own | |
It wasn't hard to believe in the lie | |
Although I've come to know it wasn't my fault | |
Why does the world continue to spin | |
While everything around me grinds to a halt? | |
And I'm finding a way of being | |
Accepting life all alone | |
And I'm hoping | |
I'll wake up seeing | |
A way to live on my own | |
IV. Frame | |
And Form Mine is a real fine line | |
I get harder the higher | |
I climb Shine like a star so bright | |
Anybody can see anytime | |
No-one will want to follow | |
This will be gone tomorrow | |
We enter an age of permanent doubt | |
Where we communicate without words | |
But I must be heard | |
So I cut through the smoke and the noise | |
Mine is a real fine line | |
It imagines it's one of a kind | |
Goodbye to all expression | |
Farewell to superstition | |
We enter an age of permanent doubt | |
Where we communicate without words | |
And the noise expands | |
As it covers the lie of the land | |
Shine like a star so bright | |
Till we shut out the light, | |
Put out the fire | |
Cut through the smoke and the noise | |
Lately I've been talking to myself | |
Been remembering and doing little else | |
The road ahead is anything but clear | |
Last time around, where did we go from here? | |
V. Mortal | |
Procession | |
What about some golden hours? | |
I was alive, certainly you were wrong | |
Anyone can be pursuaded | |
Given the time, we all scream alone | |
What about this good for nothing season again?, | |
Everything's come and gone | |
And I can't believe that | |
I'm not watching you | |
I'm in a sorry state | |
Return to ordinary thoughts now | |
If you can | |
The words | |
I hardly understand | |
Gather 'round me while | |
I wait What about those colder cowards | |
Arming against lost intelligence? | |
Anyone who saw me crawling there would have known that | |
I was normal once | |
Return to ordinary thoughts | |
Too young to take the stand | |
But old enough to kill anyone | |
HA! In the days when love divided up the looks | |
No drastic means were used like rod and hooks | |
To enhance what nature's sculptor had designed | |
No augmentation needed to refine | |
In the valley of the dollar, we rejoice | |
For plastic is the currency of choice | |
And beauty born is strictly for the birds | |
Your cash is fine but credit is preferred | |
When I held myself aloft, | |
I walked across the water | |
Now I barely cut across, | |
Lives are getting shorter | |
And they open up another door | |
To a border far below | |
For the time that | |
I'm allowed, | |
There's a new horizon | |
But a soul as cold as ice | |
Is nothing to rely upon | |
If I'm hanging onto angels' wings | |
Then I'm safer in the air | |
Do I still qualify, suspended from on high? | |
No other sanctuary have | |
I VI. Ghosts | |
Of Days And when the eyes of children | |
See past the ones left standing | |
And the time has surely come | |
To understand who we are | |
Slowly the fires are burning | |
Bearing their silent witness | |
And the living past returns | |
To reap the | |
Harvest of | |
Souls |
