I cannot be afraid for it takes me away
From the essence that moves on, living every pulse of sound
That lingers in the haze which constitutes the day
That I’m living boldly (reflections)I don’t yearn for power – I only yearn for united man
I don’t desire money – except if it’s to buy my freedom
I look to ideas – my thoughts are how I fall in love with life
I stalk the moment with pouncing desire
Don’t you know – we’re not living in a world of justice
Don’t you know – what is fact is only making dreams to believe in
So let us weave a lasting dream of peace
Rather than explaining evil
The crowd sways as one as the excitement mounts
The serpent wraps around her there’s a thunderous pause
Then out pour the shouts, the serpent winds away
The drums pound a pulse as they carry her away
Feeling such elation, the Spirit’s been placated
Shamans all – show us the way to endure the pain
I don’t need to wander – in the sacred space of this new age
The fall of man – still lurks behind this sleight of hand
I don’t deny life’s pain – I won’t be numbed by divisive love
Don’t you know – we’re not living in a world of justice
Don’t you know – what is fact is only making dreams to believe in
So let us weave a lasting dream of peace
Rather than explaining evil
The gladiators war in the coliseum floor
The fight of good and evil is felt at the core
Of the cheering and the jeers of the freemen drinking beer
The victory that is gained is the hatred that is drained
Feeling much less hatred, feeling much elation
The bidding’s getting higher cause it’s minutes from the fight
The cock’s spikes are ripe to defend their master’s pride
The closing time has come we’ve got them on the run
The money that’s been made has massaged the inner rage
Feeling much elation, the demon’s been deflated
United man, united man
