And the sun is burning today
And love yes love is here to stay
See the children laugh as they play
They don’t realize life will betray them
Seeing lights dance in closed eyes
Something must be happening inside
Follow a path we don’t ask why
Walk along the path we hardly try
Am I the only one who sees the lie?
Live by rules to tame the beast inside
But we are the beast we try to hide
Living in society is suicide

I had never seen him before
But he stands before me now by the door
Those eyes of green pierce me to the core
The peace that I once knew is nevermore
Childhood memories fade away
Leave my soul I’m begging on the floor
Why did I do it I’d take it all back
I’d walk the straight path and not sign this pact
I would bend down and help out the most helpless man
I’d walk to the light and leave this dark land

We can change society but cannot change ourselves
We can chain ourselves to life, but why not just run free?
We were made by nature’s hands, but placed upon the shelf
We can’t find our way back home, but there are those who see
Can’t you see the truth behind the feelings we all feel?
Embrace the nature of mankind, then begin to heal
Rise of the City-State begins the fall of man
Drop the bow and arrow, grab the hoe and spear
Subdue all of nature, all part of the plan
Create the gods to worship and blame for our fear
Once we sat on a mountain top, misty cold and bare
We gazed upon the valley, peaceful village there
Boats float on the river, that cuts the village square
Milky Way above us, paints a frothy stew
Planets on the horizon, lined up two by two
Turning to each other, we just knew
Lady of the moon’s dark side, you are drawn to my light
The spirit of the ancients, in your soul reside
The song of the universe, the rhythm of your life
Lovely woman of the night, you’ve been blessed with second sight
Bodies are electric fans, and I’m your robot man
Upon the mountain top we sit, staring into the human pit
Misty cold and bare

Man begins to worry
The Gods of Fury!
Listen to the Liar
The Gods of Fire!
Nature hears the Rhyme
The Gods of Time!
