Earth sky sea and rain
Is she coming back again
Men of straw sneak a whore
Words that build or destroy
Dirt dry bone sand and stone
Barbed-wire fence cut me down
I'd like to be around
In a spiral staircase
To the higher ground
And I, like a firework, explode
Roman candle lightning lights up the sky
In the cracked streets trampled under foot
Sidestep, sidewalk
I see you stare into space
Have I got closer now
Behind the face
Oh...tell me...
Charity dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up through spiral staircase
To the higher ground
Slide show sea side town
Coca-Cola, football radio radio radio

[Recitation:] Lord, I've never lived where churches grow I loved creation better as it stood That day you finished it so long ago And looked upon your work and called it good I know that others find you in the light That sifted down through tinted window panes And yet I seem to feel you near tonight In this dim, quiet starlight on the plains I thank you, Lord, that I'm placed so well That you've made my freedom so complete That I'm no slave to whistle, clock or bell Nor weak eyed prisoner of Waller Street Just let me live my life as I've begun And give me work that's open to the sky Make me a partner of the wind and sun And I won't ask a life that's soft or high Let me be easy on the man that's down Let me be square and generous with all I'm careless sometimes, Lord, when I'm in town But never let them say I'm mean or small Make me as big and open as the plains And honest as the horse between my knees Clean as a wind that blows behind the rains Free as the hawk that circles down the breeze Forgive me, Lord, if sometimes I forget You know about the reasons that are hid You understand the things that gall or fret Well, you knew me better than my mother did Just keep an eye on all that's done or said And right me
sometimes when I turn aside And guide me on that long, dim trail ahead That stretched upward toward the great divide
Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie These words came low and mournfully From the pallid lips of a youth who lay On his dying bed at the close of day
Oh, bury me not and his voice failed there But we took no heed to his dying prayer In a shallow grave just six by three We buried him there on the lone prairie.

There was smoke in the air
Then it came around
And saw he was really alone
Memories look like blood in the water
Sweet and ugly thing, just like confetti in the rain
He was known for his bad time manner
He wanted to believe that people only hear what they see
He had a good time being the bad guy
He didn't wanna understand why
That old song makes him cry
I remember when it felt like we were walking with god
Little heaven when the sun goes down
Walking in hand in hand down on the promenade
He was alone, in a dark room overlooking the mall
With a gun in his hand, and no one to call
He was waiting for a reason... then run
Just like photos in a window, that turned blue in the sun
People used to call it a... down
Now with medicates can make it go away, yeah, yeah
We used to call it a mid life crisis
He just sits and looks and pictures themselves
On way back in the day
Remember when it felt like we were walking with god
Getting stupid in a stolen car
Making love in the... behind the promenade
Think I need to slow it down
Think I need to slow my all
I need to put the gun down
I feel so lost, I feel so out of control
I broke myself in pieces to make my name
I broke those people dumb enough to get in my way
Now I look in the mirror and I can't see me
I can just swallow the world
And still be hungry
Remember when it felt like we were walking with god
Holding in with my dad and my mom
Walking in the left to see the center
On the promenade
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Remember when it felt like we were walking with god
Remember when it felt like we were walking with god
Remember, remember, remember
Remember when it felt like we were walking with god

When the dancers took to the promenade
Well my heart leapt high
And I was unafraid
Of the feeling I'd stifled for so many years
Tell me how do you
How do you feel
Well the band took their places and got all in tune
And then the caller's voice
Well it rang out beneath the moon
And then the boys took their girls and they started to reel
And they were singin' how do you, how do you feel
And then the people in the town said that they'd call the police
If we didn't keep down all this disturbin' their peace
And Officer Black, you know he answered their pleas
And he ran up on the hill just to see
Well he hid in the bushes just a stone's throw away
And then we all saw this change comin' over his face
But he was bouncin' to the beat and started hoppin' on his heels
Singin', how do you do, how do you feel
And then the townspeople asked him if he'd make some arrests
Could they find peace and quiet so they could go back to bed
He said if it's peace that you want, you're gonna find it on the hill
But the silence that you keep is the silence that kills
So the townspeople all got so uptight and mad
You know they fired him on the spot
And then they threw away his badge
Then they asked him to leave and he said gladly I will
They said tell us now how do you feel
He said, when the dancers took to the promenade
Well my heart leapt high and I was unafraid
Of the feeling I'd stifled for so many years

When voices trail away
Into silence gone
Impassioned I may stray
Boundless and pristine
The miracle unseen
The windows of the soul caught in between
Wonder
Home free I am
Come closer to my heartbeat
And kiss my tears away
Not once in a blue moon
Don't turn away
Beyond my dream
You're paramount to anything
You have the midas touch to save infinity
Come rain or shine
Forever mine
You're paramount in your design
A hope of stardust left in time
My passions running high
Going round the bend
Mirages mystify
One time we gave our vow
The time to keep is now
So say goodbye to "holier-than-thou"
Wonder
Home free I am
Come closer to my heartbeat
And kiss my tears away
Not once in a blue moon
Don't turn away
Beyond my dream
You're paramount to anything
You have the midas touch to save infinity
Come rain or shine
Forever mine
You're paramount in your design
A hope of stardust left in time
One hope
One fate
One life
Await
Don't turn away
Beyond my dream
You're paramount to anything
You have the midas touch to save infinity
Come rain or shine
Forever mine
You're paramount in your design
A hope of stardust left in time
I live and I breathe you
So come to allure me by and by
I feel and I follow you

Earth, sky, sea, and rain
Is she coming back again?
Men of straw sneak a whore
Words that build or destroy
Dirt, dry, bone, sand, and stone
Barbed-wire fence cut me down
I'd like to be around
In a spiral staircase
To the higher ground
And I, like a firework, explode
Roman candle lightning lights up the sky
In the cracked streets trampled under foot
Sidestep...sidewalk
I see you stare...into space
Have I got closer now?
Behind the face
Oh...tell me...
Charity dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up though a spiral staircase
To the higher ground
Slide show, sea side town

you can tiptoe around
and you can ask me how I am today
and i'll tell you I feel fabulous
and you're damn right
communication is overrated
it leads to hair loss
but I feel so fabulous this time
the valley of decision is near
i'll never be so weak again, No...
and if the walls are caving in
i won't be scared- not at all
i'm the ultimate fighting champion
thanks to you
Wake up, dust off
stake my claim on my attention
for me this holds paramount
it looked like a job for MacGuiver
to try and detonate this heart-bomb
but the clouds are clearing up
and it feels good
communication is overrated
it leads to hair loss
but I know that I won't
be the one to pull mine out
just around the corner- go!
always the one to stay

Well I got a new kinda squaredance rap
Gon talk smack
Flash my gat
I'm finna spit and hold my dick
And hear shit up like a thermostat
Grab your partner by the chaps
Give your partner a pimp-slap
Ti symbolize the ghetto trap
Step to the right
Give three claps
Kids jam-packed in tenement shacks
Ain't shit cookin on the stove but crack
This is the bat this hell begat
Cuz bosses are cleptomaniacs
Two by two
Promenade
Duck from a B1 bomber raid
Ain't bout the plans Osama made
Banks gettin paid off petrol trade
Circulate
Dosey-do
How much cash could a o-z grow?
Til all are fed and all have beds
My skin is Black
My star is red
FBI comin round the outside
Which one of us finna die tonight?
Is we finna fight over crumbs to bite
Or make a whole muthafuckin world
Ignite?
Everybody throw them bows
Right upside your partner's nose
By now you've got bloody clothes
Crabs in the barrel
So the story goes
Think of all their savage acts
Grabbin scratch from average cats
Bureaucrats with strings attached
Walk in place
Light the match
Two by two

My skin is Black
My star is red
Everybody get down low
Bout the level of your toes
These dance moves we usually do
Are not the ones that we have chose
Grab on to that beat and grind
Try your best to stay alive
We can run
We can't hide
Might as well just stay and fight

The air is steam and fire
A lift-off to negate defeat
A victory imperfect, there's always more
It's all we've ever longed to reach
And all we've ever longed to see
Someday, somewhere
On a highway to the sun
With marvelled eyes, with blinded eyes we'll watch
The holocaust of our wildest dreams
From here to nowhere (nowhere, nowhere)
From there to somewhere (somewhere, somewhere)
From the seas to the highest heights
From the moon to the lowest lows
From a spark to a raging fire
From the heart to the sateless mind
Stunned and amazed by what we are
We celebrate and name the stars
Expand, aspire, don't look ahead
The more we grow the less we see
The less we see the more we'll find
The light that blinds is darkness to our eyes
Through a telescope I dream
A summit in the sky blue snow
I'll carve my name into withered stone
It's all I've ever longed to do
And all I've ever longed to feel
I'd burn the midnight oil to get there
If I could only reach you now
If I could only name you now
The blind spot on a yellowed map
Stunned and amazed by what I am
To feel alive in some lonesome luck
Explore, desire, don't look ahead
The higher I go the less I see
The deeper it hurts the less I feel
And the heart of the matter is hardly to perceive
From here to nowhere (nowhere, nowhere)
From there to somewhere (somewhere, somewhere)
From the seas to the highest heights
From the moon to the lowest lows
From cult to culture, from ape to man

I know we're not the same and
I know that people change and
I know you're gonna find out
what life is all about yeah
I know that better days are
they're gonna come my way and
I know you're gona find out
what life is all about yeah
I never felt this way before
this time i feel it so much more
I think I'm drownin in your flood
I just can't live without your love
your love
I know that people change and
I know you're gonna find out
what life is all about yeah
I know that better days are
they're gonna come our way
and I know you're gonna find out
what life is all about yeah
I never felt this way before
this time i feel you so much more
I think I'm drownin in your flood
I just can't live without your love

As i gaze upon the world
I see the throne curled
Around all of the centuries
As times' penitentiaries
Piercing the black sky, the
Glowing worlds from afar
Upon the quiet crest high
The spirit of the perpetual star
With perspectives wide, the
Flowing well of sapience
Soon enter wisdom and pride
To offer you guidance
Provide us the paramount
A premonitory note
Of what to derive
Across the ocean floor
From a simple organisms perspective
None but the one struggle
Our worlds future prospective
The jurisdiction of life
Nothing but the requirement to die
For this perpetual strife
Only one may deny
The wise walks with the horizon
Passes mountains and oceans
Floats past quakes and rifts
Grasping the world with invisible motions
He who sleeps with the clouds
And cries with the rain
Hides within the shrouds
Of the rare and the arcane
The instinct of self-preservation
Thoughts with eyes on the sun
Is lost with human depravation

Promenade
Lead me from tortured dreams
Childhood themes of nights alone.
Wipe away endless years,
Childhood tears as dry as stone.
From seeds of confusion,
Illusions dark blossoms have grown.
Even now in furrows of sorrow
The dark still is sown.
My life's course is guided
Decided by limits drawn
On charts of my past ways

Promenade
Lead me from tortured dreams

My life's course is guided
Decided by limits drawn
