  Golden Age

  A thousand years or so is said
  Gentle breeze of a flowering bed
  Children and fairies chattering secrets in pretty ears
  Gone are the years
  Gone are the years of sorrow and pain
  Gone are those years
  Barefoot in clean white sand
  A kiss on the lips, a kiss on the hand

  Golden Age

  What machinery can create forcing bodies to the rhythm
  Be a part of it it's your machine, life can be forever
  Deny all this, you used to live for and let your impulse go
  beshelter you grief, last miss the clue
  and show your ears to the pain that rose
  Now that I can walk this way power in spring
  or mine and soon will stay wait for the crying line
  All that wasn't fun to be decidable is dead, is gone
  Conform a deep respect for personality is right, we're wrong
  See my friend, what matters in this grief place is what you feel
  Tell me, what do you feel
  Just don't ask and try to look behind it all cause money
  just not the mountening questions
  All that wasn't fun to be decidable is dead, is gone
  Conform a deep respect for personality is right, we're wrong
  See my friend, what matters in this grief place is what you feel
  Tell me, what do you feel
  Just don't ask and try to look behind it all cause money

  Golden Age

  Heart beat sounding, ricocheting in their cage
  Thought I'd lose my balance with the grounds bounce and sway
  And all this violence and all this goes away
  And the vibes that rise like fireflies illuminate our play
  Some light being pulled you up from night?s party
  Said, clap your hands if you think your soul is free
  And the silence was astounding
  Except some, oh Lord mercy me's
  And oh, you can't stop what's comin' up
  You?re never gonna stop, gonna live it up
  And oh, it's gonna drop, gonna fill your cup
  And oh, it's gonna drop, gonna fill your cup
  The age of miracles, the age of sound
  Well, there's a golden age
  Comin' round, comin' round, comin' round
  Give it up instead of grabbin? for decay
  What we viewed as gold I believe pollutes this space
  And its grace ascending like a snake up your tree
  Up your happy ending understanding all you're supposed to be
  Let it move right in, let it kiss your face
  Let it sow your skin in perpetual embrace
  Like I said love's light is laughter
  Like the sun spittin' happiness into the hereafter
  Oh, here it comes like a natural disaster
  Oh, blowin? up like a ghetto blaster
  Oh, here it comes, bring it faster
  Oh, here it comes, bring it faster
  The age of miracles, the age of sound
  Well, there's a golden age
  Comin' round, comin' round, comin' round
  Love, don't you falter, burnin? hearts dragged behind
  The horses dancing on the altar, hooves breakin' Gods
  To diamond dust and stars and there you are
  Now we're all allowed to breathe
  Walls dissolve with the hunger and the greed
  Move your body, you've got all you need
  And your arms in the air stir a sea of stars
  And oh, here it comes and it's not so far
  All light beings, come on now make haste
  Clap your hands if you think you're in the right place
  Thunder all surroundin'
  Oh, feel it quake with the joy resounding
  Palm to the palm you can feel it poundin'
  Never give it up you can feel it mountin'
  Oh, its gonna drop, gonna fill your cup and
  Oh, its gonna drop, gonna fill your cup
  The age of miracles, the age of sound
  Well, there's a golden age
  Comin' round, comin' round, comin' round
  The age of miracles, the age of sound
  Well, there's a golden age

  Golden Age

  All the screens are filled with heroes and losers
  But the sky's still filled with stars
  And this junky palace might be on fire
  'Til the winners lose desire
  Let it go, let it go
  So tell me what you see
  And tell me what you hear
  And if it's the same as me
  It's the golden age, it's the golden age
  Big brother tries to stitch and bend
  But channel surfers find new friends
  See freedom's silhouette increase
  It's time to claim that sweet release
  Let it go, let it go
  Now tell me what you see
  And tell me what you hear
  And if it's same as me
  It's the golden age
  Now tell me what you see
  And tell me what you hear
  And if it's the same as me
  It's the golden age, ya, it's the golden age
  It's the golden age
  I can see a purple patch of jacaranda
  Framed in eucalypt from this wooden floored veranda
  Heading past the watermark, heading for the hills
  Heading for the edge of time, heading for the thrills of the golden age
  Now tell me what you see
  And tell me what you hear
  If it's the same as me, it's the golden age
  Everybody's talking about the golden age
  Yeah, they keep on talking about the golden age

  Golden Age

  We're living in the golden age of pain
  The golden age of pain
  There's a wind blowing through my door
  And it's never been this cold before
  It's the golden age of pain
  I tell you that the golden age is here
  Everybody's drowning on the tidal wave of tears
  And on the little ball in space
  Can't nobody win a human race
  When the golden age is here
  We got to have love, we got to have peace
  We got to have trust out on the street, baby
  Until the broken hearts all mend
  How we ever gonna find the end
  Of the golden age of pain
  We're living in the golden age of pain
  Rich man, poor man, beggar man it's all the same
  Because the body don't take the blow
  It's the soul of a man that gets laid low
  In the golden age of pain
  We got to have love, we got to have peace
  We got to have trust out on the street, baby
  Until the broken hearts all mend
  How we ever gonna find the end
  Of the golden age of pain
  Until the broken hearts all mend
  How we ever gonna find the end

  Golden Age

  Put your hands on the wheel
  Let the golden age begin
  Let the window down
  Feel the moonlight on your skin
  Desert wind, cool your aching head
  Weight of the world
  Drift away instead
  Oh, these days I hardly get by
  I don't even try
  There's a treacherous road
  With a desolated view
  As distant lights
  They hear their foreign view
  Sun don't shine
  Even when it's day
  Drive all night
  Just to feel like you're okay
  Oh, these days I barely get by
  I don't even try

  Golden Age

  Let me take you down
  Deeper than you know
  Reality is gone
  Yet so much to show
  Let me take you down
  Let us look inside
  There's still so much to come
  It's time to say goodbye
  Broken dreams
  Misery replaced by constant ecstasy
  Wide awake open wide
  Existence of a better kind
  Waits for you waits for me
  Our minds become forever free
  Free of fear free of rage
  The coming of the golden age for all
  Let me take you down
  Let life fade away
  The ritual has begun
  Your life begins today
  Let me take you down
  Explore the other side
  Enlightened as we drown
  It's time to say goodbye
  Broken dreams
  Misery replaced by constant ecstasy
  Wide awake open wide
  Existence of a better kind
  Waits for you waits for me
  Our minds become forever free
  Free of fear free of rage
  The coming of the golden age for all
  Don't you turn around now
  Don't you be afraid now
  Just turn another page now
  Celebrate the golden age
  Broken dreams
  Misery replaced by constant ecstasy
  Wide awake open wide
  Existence of a better kind
  Waits for you waits for me
  Our minds become forever free
  Free of fear free of rage
  The coming of the golden age for all
  Waits for you waits for me
  Our minds become forever free
  Free of fear free of rage
  The coming of the golden age for all
  For all, all, for all

  Golden Age

  I know how to lie
  So why don't we go side by side
  I know how to lie
  So why don't we turn off the light
  Let's start our satellite
  So everyone could know tonight
  Let's start our satellite
  So everyone could see it's bright
  Aaaauuuaaauuu
  You are the one
  To hear the sound
  (You hear the sound)
  You can jump on the tree
  (Jump on the tree)
  You come along
  Side by side
  Away to find yourself

  Golden Age

  A building filled with a hundred rooms, looms overhead
  Behind the glass and curtains, a million lovers beds
  They bulldozed that old beerjoint where we drank for free
  They put a hotel on the skyline where O. Henry's used to be
  Four thousand days ago in a flood of summer rays
  These are streets I know back from the golden age
  It was dark as night at the crack of noon, Lucky Strikes and gin
  The sun goes down, the clock goes round, oh to be twenty one again
  Dominoes, the stories go, onto another round
  Another day, bills to pay, til the Hilton tore it down
  Four thousand days ago in a flood of summer rays
  These are streets I know back from the golden age
  Sunglasses mask a passing glance as the light begins to fade
  Wind blows trash across the street like a mardi gras parade
  Staggering like a harlequin I drank at every bar
  Finally found my way to sleep in the backseat of my car
  Four thousand days ago in a flood of summer rays
