[00:10.854] | I was visited by the power and the glory |
[00:13.649] | I was visited by a majestic hymn |
[00:16.575] | Great bolts of lightning lighting up the sky |
[00:19.474] | electricity flowing through my veins |
[00:22.034] | I was captured by a larger moment |
[00:24.673] | I was seized by divinity's hot breath |
[00:27.755] | Gorged like a lion on experience |
[00:30.498] | powerful from life |
[00:33.006] | I wanted all of it, all of it, all of it |
[00:37.159] | Not some of it, all of it, all of it |
[00:41.495] | Not just some of it, but all of it |
[00:43.794] | |
[00:46.328] | I saw a man turn into a bird |
[00:48.287] | I saw a bird turn into a tiger |
[00:51.004] | I saw a man hang from a cliff by the tips of his toes |
[00:53.904] | in the jungles of the Amazon |
[00:56.594] | I saw a man put a red hot needle through his eye |
[00:59.076] | turn into a crow and fly through the trees |
[01:02.367] | Swallow hot coals and breathe out flames |
[01:04.980] | and I wanted this to happen to me |
[01:08.088] | oh I wanted this to happen to me |
[01:10.648] | I wanted all of it, all of it, all of it |
[01:14.488] | Not some of it, all of it, all of it |
[01:18.668] | Not just some of it, but all of it |
[01:20.000] | |
[01:22.000] | (Consider this) We saw the moon vanish into his pocket |
[01:25.747] | we saw the stars disappear from sight |
[01:28.333] | We saw him walk across water into the sun |
[01:31.389] | while bathed in eternal light |
[01:33.949] | We spewed out questions waiting for answers |
[01:36.666] | creating legends, religions and myths |
[01:39.905] | Books, stories, movies and plays |
[01:42.570] | all trying to explain this |
[01:45.286] | I wanted all of it, all of it, all of it |
[01:48.917] | Not some of it, all of it, all of it |
[01:53.071] | Not just some of it, but all of it |
[01:55.997] | |
[01:57.486] | I saw a great man turn into a little child |
[02:00.568] | the cancer reduce him to dust |
[02:03.337] | His voice growing weak as he fought for his life |
[02:05.923] | with a bravery stronger than lust |
[02:08.588] | I saw isotopes introduced into his lungs |
[02:11.540] | trying to stop the cancerous spread |
[02:14.178] | And it made me think of "Leda And The Swan" |
[02:17.469] | and gold being made from lead |
[02:19.742] | The same power that burned Hiroshima |
[02:22.694] | causing three legged babies and death |
[02:25.620] | Shrunk to the size of a nickel |
[02:28.284] | to help him regain his breath |
[02:30.896] | And I was struck by the power and the glory |
[02:33.770] | And I was visited by a majestic hymn |
[02:36.669] | Great bolts of lightning lighting up the veins |
[02:39.255] | as the radiation flowed through him |
[02:42.077] | I wanted all of it, all of it, all of it |
[02:45.812] | Not just some of it, all of it, all of it |
[02:50.279] | Not some of it, but all of it |
