Waves & Blades
Hurled into this world for
Time's infinity
Whirled like a dervish
Spin rotisserie
Speak a dead language
Symbols you can't read
Hide behind mountains
That you'll never reach
I look around at the city
Up at the boiling black skies
Down on all the sleeping people
Thru all the millions of I's
You can only see it if you close your eyes
(Waves and blades, wheels and teachers)
Serve the demiurges
Sea to shining sea
Rise to the occasion
High on turpentine
Do not scratch the surface
Stick to your routine
Till you find your purpose
In empty magazines
I look around at the city
Up at the boiling black skies
Down on the sleeping people
Thru all the millions of I's
I haven't lost any patience
Let's have a look at you dear
Open your mouth wide
Look inside
Until it all becomes clear
You can only see it if you close your eyes
(Waves and blades, wheels and teachers)
Time's infinity
Whirled like a dervish
Spin rotisserie
Speak a dead language
Symbols you can't read
Hide behind mountains
That you'll never reach
I look around at the city
Up at the boiling black skies
Down on all the sleeping people
Thru all the millions of I's
You can only see it if you close your eyes
(Waves and blades, wheels and teachers)
Serve the demiurges
Sea to shining sea
Rise to the occasion
High on turpentine
Do not scratch the surface
Stick to your routine
Till you find your purpose
In empty magazines
I look around at the city
Up at the boiling black skies
Down on the sleeping people
Thru all the millions of I's
I haven't lost any patience
Let's have a look at you dear
Open your mouth wide
Look inside
Until it all becomes clear
You can only see it if you close your eyes
(Waves and blades, wheels and teachers)
