Adorations
Courage and Cowards move, heroes to ecstasy Welcomes of war and wounds, vigil and victory Structures of atoms dance, sugar towards the taster, Prey to the predator, love as we're falling down Through light and laughter flow, to dirge and death we go, Mindless processions move, lanterns of burning towns, Welcome to fray and feast, bliss in all sorrows found, Rhythms and random moves and waves of adorations. Patterns I'm finding As pain and joy and sorrow mingle. Patterns we're finding Our faces raised in adorations. Deserts are paradise, awake to genocides. Delight and suffering, these roles that we have found Nourished by food we eat, hungered by waste excrete From apes or sons of god, let every act be sacred. Patterns I'm finding As pain and joy and sorrow mingle. Patterns we're finding Our faces raised in adorations. |

All across the scenes the statues crumble
We cherished the seconds, counted the days And people move with lines across their faces Embracing each other with a smile For sanity's sake, sanity's sake, sanity's sake For sanity's sake, sanity's sake, sanity's sake We'll remember distant times and places We'll remember summer sun that yields Shed our bodies heart and soul for love's sake Civilizations wax and wane. Inocence will fade away like Autumn Likewise the dream of youth, the task And we shall be at peace upon our parting With the thoughts of loved ones in our hearts For sanity's sake, sanity's sake, sanity's sake For sanity's sake, sanity's sake, sanity's sake So let the sunrise light up the distnat shores And we'll remember last days of Rome again. |

We in our infancy, led down shining paths
Shine, shine, shining paths, divine our disillusion Face our imperfection, I begin to wonder Onion peelings scattered, we've been crying crying. Open our eyes and tears run down I open my eyes and tears run down I look through your mind and tears run down And under the skies and tears run down. Look at our condition, stand on concrete dias Lovers frail and naked move like pawns on chessboards I had no idea, I had no conception Where have we all come from? Where are we all going? Open our eyes and tears run down I open my eyes and tears run down I look through your mind and tears run down And under the skies and tears run down. All these changes we shall witness I will try to understand Share your grief and your confusion, compassion in us cries No divine intervention, only moves on black and white Great schemes, great schemes are also made of these. Open our eyes and tears run down I open my eyes and tears run down I look through your mind and tears run down And under the skies and tears run down. |

The days I wonder, the nights I ponder, and time is running out.
I saw restrictions of mortal lifespan, and hurled the lance beyond. The stone that's bleeding, the rock that's breathing, the war that's in our blood. Rapid formations, and celebrations, my Universe shall march. Through love of a labour, one law to follow, until the day is done We take our places amongts the mortals, but soon the day is done. |

Around, around, young men and women move
Through sun and steel our lives transforming To forge a link flow backwards to our source And forfeit self amongst the masses Why do we love them? Love of the masses They fight and play in timeless rivalry The people clamour for a loser WIth joy and sorrow mixed we realize That epace shall come by sacrifice Why do we love them? Love of the masses As proud as heroes walking hand in hand The common destiny we're sharing And all affected without prejudice Shall forfeit self amongst the masses Why do we love them? Love of the masses. |

Peace at the break of dawn, mist on the shore
Time is healing everything, time is standing still A voice, that is singing in my head With the breeze, the waves, the sea As we start to move as one Down from the hills, into the forest Walking on sand, into the water I've been dreaming - islands on my mind Down from the hills, into the forest Walking on sand, into the water I've been dreaming -under a southern sky Bright are the scented flowers, many shades of green Water from the purest spring - man is finding wealth Down by the clearing in glades of fern and palm Invocations rising from servants of the Star And walk with the breeze, the waves, the earth As we move in unison All the seeds blowing further to the south Continuity when all's said and done. All the seeds blowing further to the south Continuity when all's said and done. |

Across the sand under a crescent moon
In celebration of our feards And rumours circulating in the street The candle burns the world awaits We ask is this some kind of victory? Where is the dream, where is the sanity? As crying echoes down the corridors The child comes running to his mother's arms And all the things I hold so dear to me I love my wife, I love my family Raise up your heads and voices The promise of beyond With courage face the moment Remember who you are! A frightened people losing dignity The shadow of an island in their minds While fools are bent on making history With nothing gained, is this our destiny? |

Bleak are the hearts in summer, long wintertme
We are god children running, immortal child Out on the chill horizon, shine morning stars Configurations I'll remember herald one season always Run, run, run, how we run We cry like children In wintergardens now. Run, run, run, how we run And play like children In wintergardens now. Cry for the pride in our wars, the tragedy Lost in this blinding frenzy, all knowledge fades. Crimes of humanity or courageous deeds? No longer see injustice in self destruction always. Visions of pna transforming, new heavens come Eternal are the grey skies, gardens invert Nightshades of Eden touch me, forever touch No god has answered prayers here (except ourselves). Run, run, run, how we run We cry like children In wintergardens now. Run, run, run, how we run And play like children In wintergardens now. |

The age of miracles, assent of man in strident tones
Realms of fantastic have been forged by folly speed and steel Out of the cones stream forth, creation is not yet complete New species come, old species fall to nature once again. Now that I've found god on every side - and in every legion Revolution Points of no return Evolution We cross the rubicon The shipyards blaze, vibrant arsenals wait their turn Idols of rational worlds to worship power, to worship strength Great crowds excited by riot, pleasure, work Insane crusades, destructive gesture of the freedom bringers And all the bells shall toll, as holy banners fly And all with talk of freedom Revolution Points of no return Evolution We cross the rubicon Let rage and hate of races run from Adam down The magic of our science shines brighter than a thousand suns Liberty in new dimensions ruthless and spectacular Obliteration shall be poetry of 'Golden Dwans' And as the people thrill, I stand and comprehend upon the threshold. Revolution Points of no return Evolution We cross the rubicon |

Around the strangers moved, the shouts I felt within
New panoramas seen (I loved it as it was). Forests of pylons built, the scaffolding is raised And how the men pursue their worrk They act convinced of freedom. Crossed over by the bridge The brook was running ill. We recognised the place - places we knew as children We wept upon the sight, and progress tore our hearts Fences divide the land, homes boxed like rabbit hutches. Goodbye to the village Goodbye to the village Where soil will not provide, no king and land are one Monopolise the holy ground, all that we hold as sacred No harvest moon shall rise, no valley homestead seen And now the cities never end, and how the cities stretch forever And in the morning promise me great times will come again And the homelands in our hearts will never fade away Let the legends promise me the earth shall rise again And homelands in the hearts of men shall never fade away. Goodbye to the village Goodbye to the village Goodbye to the village Goodbye to the village I'll never never see my home I'll never never see my home You'll never never see your home You'll never never see your home |

Outside the boundaries where all the streets are empty
In such a lonely moment we reach the same conclusion Chants of cathedral choirs, stations of iron cogs grind Primeaval screams we heard. Release cannot be found, no You'll never see that water flow You'll never see the water flowing We that have tasted such beauties of corruption Triumphal arches raised designed to fall again My kingdom and place of exile You'll never see the water flowing. Your shouts of righteousness jaded our contributions Too scared for anger, the cause without a rebel No revolutions in four four time You'll never see that water flowing. I walk down amongst the ruins and past glories shattered me Elysian decays, answers that we are finding Waters of perfection fade You'll never see the water flow You'll never see the water flow You'll never see the water flowing. |
