Lyrics

Section A I’ve seen your face, a 1000 times, waiting for you to see mine. I will always try. I’ve traveled far, across the sea, through waves of time and misery, because I know you well. By the red earth and ancient trees, our immortal river bleeds, and it fills the sky. The voice of slaves beneath the sun, children bought with money run. Are they just a shell? Section B It’s been 20 years, since they sentenced me, to walk the hours, in this anomie, to live, to learn to be free, because I give, I never knew how to be. From all of my misdeeds, from all the books I read, and all the words I write, from all the poems I recite: I grow. I learn to be free. Section C To the East, to a fallen land, I walked across the desert sands. My hands bound and shackled feet, through the wind I could not see. If you feel I’m hiding, it’s when I always wanted to be. When you see me shining, you’ll know I’ve learned to be free. They left me in the ancient ruins; I woke up in the temple of the moon. I looked down to the underworld; Osiris took my soul unfurled. If you feel I’m hiding, it’s when I always wanted to be. When you see me shining. You’ll know I’ve learned to be free. Section D Is all alone, how we’ll always be? Is all One, how we are free? The daughters of Albion hear her woes, and echo back her sighs. Can they just see the world with, and not through their eyes. There’s a stream of consciousness, running thorough humankind. There’s a stream of consciousness, moving from mind to mind.
