The Fire and the Rose
You damn the time you're doubting
You will think it is forever long
And it is only now
Upon the hour I call to right the wrong
Push uphill against the day
Hold your breath now clinch your hands
And no sooner than you say
"No more and thank you", the lesson lands
In the dark time of the year
It began to fall asunder
The ease and wonder
And I've seen the changes
Waylaid by all the gainsaying
Muy bueno, stranger
The fire and the rose are one
Some take a swig or ten
Some taking pills. Some take it on the chin
Taking heart and then
Start taking heed within. Take to giving in
Darling, you offer all the love
A man could need to be at one
With all that moves and all that shines
And the well it all comes from
The dove descending breaks the air
With flame of incandescent terror
Of the which tongues declare
The one discharge from sin and error
And no abomination
For all their cage of shame has done
They have not contained us
And the fire and the rose are one
Dance along the remaining salient (The fire and the rose are one)
To playfully unveil the pennant (The fire and the rose are one)
Be it plainly stated
The fire and the rose are one
For my love of an unchained Australian
The fire and the rose are one
The fire and the rose are one
You will think it is forever long
And it is only now
Upon the hour I call to right the wrong
Push uphill against the day
Hold your breath now clinch your hands
And no sooner than you say
"No more and thank you", the lesson lands
In the dark time of the year
It began to fall asunder
The ease and wonder
And I've seen the changes
Waylaid by all the gainsaying
Muy bueno, stranger
The fire and the rose are one
Some take a swig or ten
Some taking pills. Some take it on the chin
Taking heart and then
Start taking heed within. Take to giving in
Darling, you offer all the love
A man could need to be at one
With all that moves and all that shines
And the well it all comes from
The dove descending breaks the air
With flame of incandescent terror
Of the which tongues declare
The one discharge from sin and error
And no abomination
For all their cage of shame has done
They have not contained us
And the fire and the rose are one
Dance along the remaining salient (The fire and the rose are one)
To playfully unveil the pennant (The fire and the rose are one)
Be it plainly stated
The fire and the rose are one
For my love of an unchained Australian
The fire and the rose are one
The fire and the rose are one
