20Th Century Dreaming

(a shaman's song)

Cold morning

Start of another day

Sleeping through the epilogue

Waking to the sound of rain

Driven to the crossroads

Where value's meaningless

What did you do to my faith

In justice, hope and happiness

Social, economical, spiritual

I'm moving to the house of love

Take my fire

Take my food and water

Forget about those promises

Of social good and social order

Lassoed by the cowboys

Tied down and it shows

Well I'm roping in those bad dreams

And selling off my work clothes

Social, economical, spiritual

I'm moving to the house of love

Gonna take a course of action

To restore my sight

'til the heart of motivation

Is filled with a golden light

They're hiding in the treetops

Tugging at my coat

But the power lines are falling down

And burning in the undergrowth

Social, economical, spiritual

I'm moving to the house of love

As the river runs

Tumbles and turns

You know you shouldn't stay

Or play the game again

But it could be different this time

You may win

Dreaming, dreaming

Dreaming, dreaming lying down

Dreaming,dreaming

Dreaming, dreaming lying down

I'm moving to the house of love

Here comes the dreaming
