The sun is setting in on England's green and pleasant land
AT dusk I leave the town to tear the fences down And I ignore the voice of education sighing and crying in my head In the light of every dream, we're all coming home Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land Memories of gentlemen and cricket fade away in the hot summer But still they carry out traditions of the past without a meaning In the light of every dream, we're all coming home Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land New towns and concrete towerblocks, inhuman as they stand And did those feel in ancient times, or was it just our imaginations? In the light of every dream, we're all coming home Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land |

In the morning as I come around, rub my eyes and look outside
Watching, absorbing the underworld - reflections of a monstrous soul within Power stations and power games - this sickness called society I have identified the forces behind these changes that I see I put on my mask I walk down the path I go through the arch Outside the gate I have walked blkac lava fields of the northern hemisphere I have travelled the Andes range, across Pacific isles There is no escape in the waking world from that which is approaching us fast Salvation is drawn from our childhoos dreams In lands of beauty untainted by cynicism I put on my mask I walk down the path I go through the arch Outside the gate He invokes entities vast and mindless! We shall taste unimaginable joys a thousand times greater than these! And when the stars assume their rightful place, man liberates a mindless race Morals and laws shall be thrown aside - tap the millenial flame with pride Gaze with wonder, embrace your fate - A madman looks outside the gate! I put on my mask I walk down the path I go through the arch I close the gate |

I hear the calling Carry across the landscape I hear it echo from every city to every village upon the earth From every rooftop to every mountain Calling the faithful to find themselves A fire burning like precious water, the fire that drives me on and on Through hell I shall reach heaven I shall not resist the changes before me View the madness with perspective (the clock is ticking but time means nothing) So I ascend to the blinding light Then plummet to the thickest darkness (and I always tell myself how splendid is the adventure!) I can no longer see good or evil But worship polarity So do not trust the beggars that expose their poverty of spirit Bleating "I will follow" I heed I heed the calling Follow yourselves as leaders Arise, arise, stand upright and take pride in who and what you are Great changes are coming and you will be asked to identify yourself So run like a lion with inexhaustible strength from world to world Let your work shine unto the ends of time yeah unto the ends of time. |

I was a tourist in the Andes
On my way to Tiahuanaco Where the balance of a weeping god Faced east to the rising sun But I looked out the window And all I could see Was the face of a girl She was looking at me She was begging for food Then I knew I had found The weeping god In the face of a child As she gestures with her fingers Her little brother followed suit And all I did was take my camera So the image never fades away I no longer saw the great gate of the sun Nor the dawn of time when our race had begun Just black eyes like starving dogs looking at me A weeping god was all I'd ever see And as I sat in contemplation beyond all charity Losing the magic and meaning of living (the earth and the stars these things are mine) And when they've drained the earth of all resources We'll face the music still For you and I shall be striking memories In the thoughts of our children's children I had arrived at my destination At the gate of the rising sun We shall again regain in sunset that balance That we left undone I stared at the shacks and the shanty town mess I couldn't help but to think of the West The balance was lost and my reason went wild As the weeping god came alive in the child I began to weep And I remember the violation Determination came, Determination, Yeah! |

Forget all your belongings - leave the city, come unto the ends of the earth with me All our friends and relatives fell for neatly packaged policies And we shuddered at the headline, newsflash of the tensions in the Middle East You know as well as I do detente can't last forever Or overpopulation Me?

Ten percent of the land
Is the hand that pulls the strings Be the privileged few (to have to own to hold) Power over the people yes yes Power over people Be the privileged few to have to own to hold Money property assets before lives Green gestures of a dying planet An endless debate only too late An appetite for glutony The only way is up the only way is up But when you are up you have to try and stay there So you stamp and cheat on people Champagne breakfats (rewards for the killing) And a fast waist bulging Indulging, in what you call good living But most of all there is too much fat on your heart - pig A lifestyle of cholesterol Cross collateralized cholesterol Saving what's left from profit margin For what? I'll tell you what for For some irrelevant conscience easing charity - Why? Just to justify! Just to justify! Look at this utopia A society based on solid foundations Educate our children - educate them well To feather the nest and fuck the rest (Yes yes feather thenest and fuck the rest) The waste expands (As your waist expands) While others stand at the back of the queue I mean you Still the same old security For your creature comforts Exchanging the hours of your life For the cash you've already spent Eating rubbish so you can pay the rent Table wine once a week if you'relucky In comparison Privatise the people's lives Be part of the company (or fade!) The appliance of science to privatise their lives Water is our business Electricity is our business Gas is our business Lives are our business Business is our business Your money - my time Your stinking industrial bathwater - my wine Imbalance induces hate How will you fill the gap Between the endless buffet And the scraps of food I have I feel hate I feel hate I feel hate I feel hate (Don't be afraid to show your hate, hate!) You just treat me like a commodity You didn't know I couldn't even afford to feed my family I just want to kill I just want to take a gun And put it to your head And pull the trigger |

The lore of elders passes judgement on this waste
And finding me or them does lack accepting fate And as the moments pass another face arrives We watch them come and go with speed of passing clouds Forbidden fruits of dreams that rule our thoughts my love Of lands untouched and ways to come always maybe But choking on promises meant for the deal Thinking again the darkest hour before the dawn Confirming fears that from the dawn of time have been Retracing footsteps in dark chambers of grey lands And through the madness through the terror we must pass As if awaiting sunlight that may never come In time we face ourselves with all our faults and fears Now that i know the final conflict is within I recognise the faces of my friends and hear the call "Come journey, journey with me through the darkest hour" |

Back to square one, and the old school backfire
It's just begun, let's watch the blind eyes turning Stains on the wall, been waiting far too long now Nice day, blue sky, I watch them shrug their shoulders Tighten the grip (getting tighter) Now see the ball is rolling We take delight, it's been a long wait for this moment. Back to square one, another empire backfire Back to square one, another empire backfire SIgn of the time, blood pressure running high now Nowhere to dance, which channel can you turn to? We take delight, we watch them shrug their shoulders Let's take delight, it's been a long wait for this moment. Back to square one (now it's my turn) Another Empire backfire Back to square one (now it's your turn) And the old school backfire... |

But the drums keep thundering in familiar way Outside the legions multiply By and by - you're still alive Getting nowhere - can't find no way 'cos ego ego taking the fame Discord dances discord earth Harvest thanks didn't go quite right Noise turns darker the moments pass But the drums keep thundering in familiar way Outside the legions multiply By and by - i'm still alive |

You're alone in the pack, you're feeling like you want to go home
You're feeling life's finished but you keep on going The reason is there, you won't find it till you've been and gone Because you're living a hoax - someones got you sussed! Dull your brain, or seek inspiration You peel illusion, and then you find its a transfer Drugs for the machine, to play with your head So you can stand back and watch, or take part and learn If you don't know the game, then you're still part of it Because out on the streets it's strange to see the show Knowing full well that you're on the range Dodge the bullets or carry the gun, the choice is yours Look at the controller, a Nazi with a social degree A middle-class hero, a rapist with your eyes on me You beast for masturbation, a priests cheer to the nuns you fuck You'd wipe out spastics if you had the chance but Jesus wouldn't like it |

Slowly, slowly all fall down
A blindfold dance and a 1,2,3 No mistake where they always emphasize security Draw the curtains, shut the door, the heater's on I couldn't ask for more I pull the sheets right overhead Snuggle, snuggle safe in bed Take the weight right off my shoulder Misery claims much too late Bow the head or grip the sabre Vermichten regenerate Bright eyed young inherit all Treading down upon the fallen They was drawn towards the Hum Plenty more where they come from. Slowly, slowly all fall down A blindfold dance and a 1,2,3 Swarm upset the gentle lamb A hive don't hold no humble bee! Slowly, slowly, out it came, Tendencies that weren't the same And they were drawn towards the Hum Plenty more where We come from. |

Out on the town Music for pleasure It's not music no more Music to dance to Music to move This is music to march to do a war dance A war dance Look at graffitti Scrawled on the wall You know the the reason Outside the door You got something Nasty in your mind Trying to get out do a war dance A war dance You've opened the pit Honesty is sick You try to be honest Look what you get The foods run short And then the money talks One way out Your premonition is correct A war dance |

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. |

They've lost their values as we define a wealth Semen and blood is all i've got, investments of a future I'm searching for a new gold yes i'm searching for a new gold A voice is calling Move closer to you - yeah Virile young men run down the street in havoc singing "I wish to build, i penetrate, i penetrate" Restricted sexuality gives birth to worlds of terror And all the time i'm trying to piece new schemes together - help me Architects erect erections, monoliths are raised I love the swollen mound i love the swollen mound All hail the new seed breeding from our hearts and wombs And night and day run round in circles following sex instinct Push it between her legs and stretch the lips mother relieve me Bodies entwined in human tangle at the point of climax Shoot forth the new gold and at last reason makes perfect sense I'm shooting, shooting forth I'm shooting forth the new gold now - ha! |

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.

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. |

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. |

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. |

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. |

Out on the town Music for pleasure It's not music no more Music to dance to Music to move This is music to march to do a war dance A war dance Look at graffitti Scrawled on the wall You know the the reason Outside the door You got something Nasty in your mind Trying to get out do a war dance A war dance You've opened the pit Honesty is sick You try to be honest Look what you get The foods run short And then the money talks One way out Your premonition is correct A war dance |

Dark forces I´m an inside man Of the serpent clan 33 degrees I´ll do as I please Power for power´s sake And two weeks off In bohemian grove You wanna come?

Overcome with a sense of elation I'll never let you get to me Survival is my victory I sighed and sighed as I was mourning I said sorry a thousand times I cried aloud to God for all my failings But God seemed deaf as well as blind Oh, sing a song of joy Sweet childhood, never desert me Time for celebration, oh! Overcome with a sense of elation I'll never let you get to me Survival is my victory We drank and smoked and talked until the dawn We shared our problems and our food Telling tales of courage and resolution Through all the hardships we'd endured Oh, sing a song of joy Sweet childhood, never desert me Time for celebration, oh!
