lyrics
The sky was bronze bleeding
We sat waiting to watch the sun setting
But lord, our question's not in the sun
nor is our answering
You scream and you shout
You pierce and you pout
You clear and you cloud
but still you get yourself into these
circumstance that knock you down
And until goal and ground
that poor ego will not surrender, not surrender
I knew you weren't asleep
just dying to more and more and more
one world at a time
sinking sight through levels of illusion
You scream and you shout
You flee and you flout
You shrine and you shroud
but still you get yourself into these
circumstance that knock you down
And until goal and ground
that poor ego will not surrender, not surrender
Even now, you fight it
We sat waiting to watch the sun setting
But lord, our question's not in the sun
nor is our answering
You scream and you shout
You pierce and you pout
You clear and you cloud
but still you get yourself into these
circumstance that knock you down
And until goal and ground
that poor ego will not surrender, not surrender
I knew you weren't asleep
just dying to more and more and more
one world at a time
sinking sight through levels of illusion
You scream and you shout
You flee and you flout
You shrine and you shroud
but still you get yourself into these
circumstance that knock you down
And until goal and ground
that poor ego will not surrender, not surrender
Even now, you fight it
