I Am The Sun, Part One
Been around for a while, grown my beard, I'm still a child Deadends, shortcuts, just the same, I'm the master of my game Predictable, now you may say, the Danny Kaye of present day Close my hand, wave my wand, the brainchild of your wonderland Now, I'm at the peak, never forget what I tell you Never give in to the big sleep, fast becoming Now, I'm at the edge, never reject what I offer Never believe what they tell you, let's move a mountain Now watch me fight, now watch me bleed on the universal spiral scene The progress lingers, thoughts of man, take it as far as humans can Now think of me your solid dream, catch me floating down the river I'm an island drifting by and time again your sole forgiver Now, I am the sun, I am the first day of summer Never give in to the dark deep, fast becoming Now, I am the moon, I am the end of the tunnel Never believe in the dark ages, let's move a mountain Call me ageless, call me ghost, the diamond duke behind the shades The sunflower beneath the skyline swaying in the land of snakes Hey, I used to be a king, now I'm just a king of laughter Put my faith in anything Anything that's close to wonder Anything that's close to wonder Songtexte I'm in the middle, now see what I've done, staring into the sun You think you're drowning, but slowly you slip thru the grinders of time Afternoon in the upstreams, begging for time Humming the words "I feed you my colorful shrine" I'm in the middle, hold on to what's mine, in the limbo of time You think you're dreaming, but gradually you learn what it's like being torn I'm on the other side painting skies to the poor Humming the words "I'll join you, we'll break down the scores." Break down the (Break down the) Break down the (Break down the) Break down the (Break down the) Break down the She came from the islands, seen places afar They said she was gifted, reading the stars And though I'm certain she was tellin' the truth She'd faint when the mob start rockin' the boat In time your eyes will open and the curtains will drop To see we are one, this one that we are In time your eyes will open and time will tell "Larger than life", "revolve among stars" She came from a time where time's running slow Transcending the limits, step up to the flow She brought to the table all the wonders of life The year of the dragon, she opened our eyes. In time your heart will open, you'll let her in To see we are one, this one that we are In time our hearts will open, time will tell "Larger than life", "revolve among stars" Aus Songtexte Mania
