Prelude 00:43
I’ve seen the dawning of day I have seen all her mysteries Taught through our ancestral ways Through our memes and our ribosomes Though the mystery prevails We can’t re-write all history So come along with me
2.
Fate is a memory Blistered faces in the sun While the sea brings the tides of wine So much damage getting done High upon the mountain top Looking out into the sea Businessmen they shake the hands of war Three books will destiny Wild men, cast their futures and their lots Rewrite the manuscript Break the chain Crack the whip We will ride We will ride
3.
The road of time is immeasurable A continuum we share There is science in the air Let’s dig up fossils and roll the bones There’s a heritage we share There’s a spirit everywhere Love Fossil will save me Love Fossil will save me So you claim to be part of the loneliest heart So you claim to be part of the loneliest heart We’ve got one more chance to dance in the night with the fire And the science of desire Time is on the way Science knows your name I won’t live again There are luddites across the way Let’s bring them home for bread to break This is a chance we all should take Let’s plant on earth the human stake
4.
They saw the monkey up With science in his cup Beyond the stratosphere uniting A race of East and West To see whose man is best Damn that cosmonaut was gorgeous Flight make right When does fight make right Beyond the atmosphere uniting East verses West Whose man is best Beyond that gilded Iron Curtain
5.
Demiurgic 04:41
Don’t run on your dream man Because the monster remains It’s a sad situation knowing that we had to go it alone Now it’s us to feel the shame I had a dream boy Casted a seed Planted a scene I had a dream I want to feel like I’m home And kick a whole through the son Who’s side are you on...anyway It was a bad mistake to let it go this long I heard a voice in the sky You called it 4th of July I saw the planes flying by You called it 4th of July You heard voices

The Wound 07:17
Smoke stacks exploding, shorelines eroding Will there be more bombs dropped next year? My heart is imploding from the pain we’re all holding Will there be more bombs dropped next year? I thought a lot about this now What are we up against? People who rather we would not Because it’s not in their good book There’s no need for the fear We’ve had millions of years We have a lot to answer for We have a lot to question more Hey mister man what did you do? With all the continents abused Did it mean that much to you When you’re a skeleton too? You put the wound in my head Maybe I’ll remember all the things that you said You put the wound in my head Maybe I’ll remember all the things that we’ve read
7.
Dear mister preacher you told me a story One day of heaven and hell My telescope doesn’t see the place, in the books that you sell I got confessions to make I am ready to feel the earth that is real My heart feels the glory of the humans in the field, let us heal Give me your Bible, your Koran, your Torah I need fuel for the night My heart feels the glory of their Fire burning bright in the night It’s been a long time coming, I’m over you We got a world we can work with We have the seeds for the field We got the architects building All the power for the free So the sermon that I’m feeling Comes alive with you and me
8.
To break away from chains, I saw the beggars in the cave I watched the candle light the way I watched the shadows change Who are you to strap me down Who are you to let me out I saw the image light the way Watched the shadows change I watched the channels change To break away from chains I won’t be lying around to save your slaves To walk the street again I won’t be lying around to watch your dead I’m calling all my folks outside the cave There are a million ways that we can land this plane Did I call your name? Heaven is out of the cave
9.
I’ve seen the dawning of day I have seen all her mysteries Taught through our ancestral ways Through our memes and our ribosomes Though the mystery prevails We can’t re-write all history So come along with me Though the mystery prevails We are free You can’t solve anything Unless we agree
