Divisadero
And so the story continues
We were left standing in the rain
The world around us
Had already burst into flames
The armies of the pirates' nations
Once again conducting their massive campaigns
To prove man's incredible inhumanity to man
The people caught in the shock and the awe
Of their system and its delirium
In what
In what name of god do you drop bombs
On children from above
They've taken Everything
Everything the goddess of love freely gave
To all of her children
They've taken Everything
The goddess had so freely given
Out of love for her children
And so
Ah the pirates sold it back to us
And we paid a more than a king's ransom
And it was never enough
To satisfy their insatiable greed
Believe me
They would even steal the air that we breathe
And sell it back to us if they only could
Find the technology
But the greatest criminals of all
Were the high priests
Who kidnapped god from the people
Who made them orphans
And cast this darkness upon them
Like violent storms on the water
They claimed to have god on their side
But they enslaved you
To serve the pirates' machine
Who can talk of god
And drink from a golden chalice when
The world as we know it
Is about to end
Their time has run out
And with one last desperate grab
But you are one of God's children
I'm pointing my sails
Across the great divide
Of your heart
To reach the event horizon
I'm pointing my sails
Across the great divide
Of the cosmic sea
To reach your event horizon
I'm pointing my bough
Straight across the divide
Of your mind
To reach your event horizon
And don't don't give up before we get there my friend
We have waited a long time for these causes to begin
And it would be such a shame
If we could not find you when we need you
So don't fall into despair don't slit your wrists
Before we get there
You will be free
To begin to build a new land
You will be free
Your children will walk in the light
Their rightful kingdom
But until then
The black hole inside you
Holds the space for the light
That is you
The black hole inside you
Holds the space for the light
That is you
The black hole inside you
Holds the space for the light
That is you
We were left standing in the rain
The world around us
Had already burst into flames
The armies of the pirates' nations
Once again conducting their massive campaigns
To prove man's incredible inhumanity to man
The people caught in the shock and the awe
Of their system and its delirium
In what
