From the recording Peace is Not a Fashion
A little pretentious; maybe overwrought...one of many, I'm afraid.
Lyrics
It's coming around again
A new age celebration
Creating the common will
With god-like inspiration
With warriors getting restless
Soon we'll have to steal
The time that it's taken
It's taken to heal
In the new age, in the new age
I can't keep the pressure off
But I feel no power, so I play along
Tired of all the promises of a better life
I know will never change
The new age
Avoiding body and soul
The debts too deep to repay
While rotting out from the inside
Like a beat of a Chevrolet
Still all in all, it's what we've lost
And what we've left behind
That is burning, still burning
Still burning, our eyes
In the new age
We tell ourselves it's a safer phase
As we live our lives like a teleplay
And sell our souls from center stage
While computers feed our children human praise
It's coming around again
And I've got to make my choice
Whether to stand and fight
Or to rejoice, rejoice
So I try to play my part
I can feel the earth's heart
Her pulse caressing and stressing the tearing apart
I can't keep the pressure on
Cause the wound's too deep and the beat's too strong
It's pumping precious life away
With a blindness that just can't see past today
Wake up before it slips away
