WHEN WILL THEY RISE
TO CLIMB
WHEN WILL I SEE
INTERTWINING VEINS OF GOLD
REMEMBERED GRIEF FROM OUR OLD TOMORROWS
THE WHITEWASHED TOMBS ARE FILLED WITH BONES
WHEN WILL THEY RISE
TO CLIMB
WHEN WILL THEY RISE

LET’S START A REVOLUTION
START A REVOLUTION
TEACH OUR KIDS TO LEARN WAR NO MORE
TEACH OUR KIDS TO LEARN WAR NO MORE, NO MORE
WHEN ALL THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES THEY SEE
A WORLD FILLED WITH HYPOCRISY
HOW CAN WE THINK THAT THEY WON’T BE
INFECTED BY SOCIETY
A CULTURE THAT’S OBSESSED WITH WAR
THE GREED FOR MONEY WAGING MORE AND MORE
GET OFF THE BLOODY FLOOR
‘CAUSE DEATH IS KNOCKIN’ AT YOUR DOOR
LET’S START A REVOLUTION
START A REVOLUTION
THE SWORD’S BEEN SHARPENED ON THE STONES
THE WHITEWASHED TOMBS ARE FILLED WITH BONES
THAT GNASH THEIR TEETH ON FALLEN THRONES
A WEARY, WEAPING WORLD BEMOANS
SO PLANT THE SWORD DOWN IN THE GROUND
AND HEAR THE RINGING SONG RESOUND
OF WHAT WAS LOST, BUT COULD BE FOUND
A DREAM TO WHICH OUR FATE IS BOUND
LET’S START A REVOLUTION
START A REVOLUTION
TEACH OUR KIDS TO LEARN WAR NO MORE
TEACH OUR KIDS TO LEARN WAR NO MORE, NO MORE
TEACH THEM ONE HUMANITY
THE SAME LIGHT IN EVERY FACE
PEACE WITHOUT JUSTICE IS TYRANNY
ONE NAME, ONE HUMAN RACE
LET’S START A REVOLUTION
START A REVOLUTION
TEACH OUR KIDS TO LEARN WAR NO MORE
TEACH OUR KIDS TO LEARN WAR NO MORE, NO MORE
LET’S START A REVOLUTION
START A REVOLUTION

THIS IS A SONG FOR THE EMPTY PLACES
A SONG FOR THE DRIED UP TRACES
OF THE TEARS
FROM OUR EYES
THE SOUNDS OF OUR BURNT OUT SORROWS
REMEMBERED GRIEF OF OUR OLD TOMORROWS
BRINGING TEARS
TO YOUR EYES
OH… OH… OH… OH…
THIS IS A SONG OF THE PAIN THAT FEEDS US
REMINDING US OF THE ONES WHO NEED US
STANDING STRONG
HOLDING ON
AND SO I SING TO THE BROKEN HEARTED
A MELODY OF THE DEAR DEPARTED
NOW GONE
MOVING ON
OH… OH… OH… OH…
THIS IS A SONG FOR THE EMPTY PLACES
A SONG FOR THE DRIED UP TRACES
OF THE TEARS
FROM OUR EYES

HOW DO YOU KNOW
DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW

DO YOU BELIEVE IN LIFE TO COME
CAN IT BE TRUE
I LOOK LIKE YOU

Walking Trees
03:08
|
|

|
WHEN YOU HAVE PURCHASED SALVE ENOUGH
TO COAT YOUR EYELIDS HEAVILY
THROUGH TEARS YOU’LL SEE THE WALKING TREES
WHICH ONCE TO YOU WERE STILL AND COLD
REMEMBER AS THE WATER FLOWS
LIKE VEINS OF SAP UPON YOUR SKIN
THAT THOSE WITHOUT MUST LOOK WITHIN
TO WHERE THE SALVE IS BOUGHT AND SOLD
SEE THEM WAITING AT THE WATER
WITH THEIR LEAVES THAT NEVER WITHER
HIDDEN ROOTS BENEATH THE RIVER
INTERTWINING VEINS OF GOLD
WHEN YOU’VE BEEN CLOTHED IN WHITE ATTIRE
AND ON THE LAND HAVE SET YOUR FEET
AND THERE AT HAND HAVE FRUIT TO EAT
FROM OFF THE BRANCHES OF THE TREES
REMEMBER THAT WITHIN YOUR GRASP
ARE MANY SEEDS, IF PLANTED RIGHT
WILL BRING FORTH SPOTLESS DEEDS OF LIGHT
CONSIDER THAT THIS FOOD IS FREE
SEE THEM WAITING AT THE WATER
WITH THEIR LEAVES THAT NEVER WITHER
HIDDEN ROOTS BENEATH THE RIVER
INTERTWINING VEINS OF GOLD
WATCH THEM BENDING LOW AND KNEELING
TOUCH THEIR LEAVES WHICH ARE FOR HEALING
MANIFESTED ROOTS REVEALING
UNIVERSAL REMEDIES
DRINK THE CRYSTAL WATER DOWN
AND LISTEN TO THE WHISPERING BREEZE

Where Have They Gone
04:00
|
|
||
|
WANDERING THROUGH THE WILDS OF ERROR
SOLDIERING ACROSS FIELDS OF YOUNG BLOOD
SINKING LOW IN THE MIRE OF PRETEXT
GONE DOWN IN THE FLOOD
DROWNED IN THE FLOOD
WHERE ARE THEY GOING
I CAN’T SEE
STANDING STILL IN THE COVETOUS WASTELAND
STARING OUT ACROSS A DESERT OF NAMES
IGNITING OLD WINE AND OIL TOGETHER
GONE UP IN THE FLAME
BURNED IN THE FLAMES
WHERE HAVE THEY GONE

Rising Point
04:36
|
|
||
|
WHEN AT THE MELTING POINT OF SPRING
AS ROLLING SUN IS BREAKING
HEAR EVERY LIMB AND TENDON BREATHE
SEE BONE AND SINEW WAKING
BEYOND THE HILL CALLED “RESOLUTE”
AND OVER FIELDS OF PATIENCE
A SIGHT ASTOUNDING TO BEHOLD
A MULTITUDE OF NATIONS
NATIONS
WHEN WILL THEY RISE
“CAN EVER MORE BE LOST?” THEY ASK
NO ANSWER THOUGH IS NEEDED
FOR IN THAT PLACE BEHIND THEIR EYES
THE WOUNDED THOUGHT, RECEDED
MORE TROUBLE FOR THE IRON FIRST
BEFORE TO GOLD TRANSMUTED
THE HEAT TO RISE AND SO THE DROSS
REJECTING THE POLLUTED
NATIONS
WHEN WILL THEY RISE
NOW AT THE RISING POINT OF LIFE
A STANDING AFTER FALLING
RECOVERING THE TRUTH ONCE LOST
OBSERVE AND HEED THE CALLING
NATIONS

TO CLIMB ABOVE EXPECTATIONS
TO CLIMB INTO UNSEEN WORLDS
CLIMB
RISE
ASCEND
SPIRAL UP TO NEW HEIGHTS
