Surfing the astroplane
Looking for my simple mind
Over complicated
Has led me to be over-rated
I will kiss the ones I love
It’s no crime I have enough
If they don’t follow I’ll still lead
I’m the example so look to me
So I breathe the air that is given to me
I embrace the things that make me free
And if no one understands
I’ll stand alone - I’ll be the man
Main street oblivion bleeds lies and politics
We stand up for our rights and the cops beat up with sticks
Prophecy to the tenth degree
Open your eyes and you will see
The backlash the whiplash devastation like a cannon ball splash.
My heartfelt hypocrisy, writing my biography
Lost on democracy.
Rag-town, downtown, everybody stand up, don’t sit down
Get up off your backs, verbal attack
It is time to take it back
I will kiss the ones I love
It’s no crime I have enough
If they don’t follow I’ll still lead
I’m the example so look to me
So I breathe the air that is given to me
I embrace the things that make me free
And if no one understands
I’ll stand alone - I’ll be the man
Take that light out of my face
Step back give me room to pace
Free to rant try to stop my chant.
Spread the wealth, go to hell
Something in my crawl, something smells
You want change, it goes bang, I hear your prison door clang
It ain’t nothing, it ain’t hope
Stinks like a drug, lies like dope
I’m losing reflex, what do you expect
I’m tore up, but I’ll store up, conflict
Traveling airborne hypnotically
Looking down at a cool breeze
Lay me in the current flowing
Energize me while I’m glowing
I will kiss the ones I love
It’s no crime I have enough
If they don’t follow I’ll still lead
I’m the example so look to me
So I breathe the air that is given to me
I embrace the things that make me free
And if no one understands
I’ll stand alone - I’ll be the man
Give me bitterness and gall
I take this pain for free
It burns my throat my tongue is numb
My eyes are opened to see
Plow my body with your sting
Wrapped around my golden wings
Squeezing the breath out of me
I fight through blood and misery
Today it should have been me
But I watched the whole world die
For different reasons I can’t explain
Today I watched you cry.
Do what you must we all turn to dust we all die alone
It’s not just we all lose trust we all die alone
Life screams loud stripped of power we all die alone
When it turns sour, in our dying hour we all die alone
Losing in the end letting go of friends we all die alone
Caution to the wind confessing every sin we all die alone
Everyone’s fate death to taste we all die alone
Like Jesus on the cross we all suffer loss we all die alone
