Bridge of Ecstasy

Trembling legs and a pounding heart
Eagle eye and water sparks
Steps are heavy and wind is key
There is a far distance and death beneath me
Waterfalls, sounds of heaven
Slippery rocks, but gentle cleansing
Lurking danger, arousing beauty
Force of nature, won't you please teach me

Cause I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Won't we take away these vanities and get old-school and bleed
No, I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Oh won't we please start keeping score

Lady waterfall, oh won't you visit my dreams
Teach me all about these erosion schemes
How can I smoothen the sharpest edges
And fill the core with true essence
I wanna make love, I wanna make love to colour
And wash away this human odour
Clouds of gas they suffocate
And the smell of nature is key to relate

So, no I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Won't we take away these vanities and get old-school and bleed
No, I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Oh won't we please start keeping score

Do only the poor, do only the poor remember their roots?
Who gives a fuck about your shiny boots
Plastic boats they are domesticating
And painting over beauty with a brush dipped in gasoline
Coral dies, because we can't seem to fill our appetite
And treasures of earth, they are being melded into fantasy
Soon we'll tell our kids that lions and sharks they don't exist
They're mystic creatures floating over the bridge of ecstasy

So, no I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Won't we take away these vanities and get old-school and bleed
No, I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Oh won't we please start keeping score

No I won't stay quiet, quiet no more
Won't we take away these vanities and get old-school and bleed
No, I won't stay, quiet no more
Oh won't we please start keeping score
