Old World Dying

Can you hear it!?
Can you feel it!?
The Old World is dying!
I said,
Can you hear it!?"
That's our Grandmothers crying
For the youth they once preserved
Before we named this nature so perverse
A bitter curse
Oh, What's worse,
Than to cease our growth?
Like a blind man takes an oath
he says he's never seen a ghost,
Or a birth,
But I EXIST, I KNOW!

The Open Door

See, I was born
A wounded man
I'm doing all the good I can
And I am torn
Between two worlds
Gathering all
Of wisdoms pearls
Seemed to be
The only thing
Worth doing
In this wicked scene.
I've touched the Earth
With human hands
And I've felt the spirit
Within the man
And these two worlds
They don't seem to be
All that they are,
All they're worked up to be
There's so much more
Beyond this shore
The open door
Is calling for you,
NOW LOOK AND SEE!

We Need You In This Time

I KNOW YOU HAVE A DREAM
Don't you ever let it die,
In the hands of those who doubt.
Don't give in to apathy,
Don't give up on yourself,
You have a purpose,
You are totally worth it
Don't build up a fortress
Or you'll never really get
To know yourself
You have a gift
And it can only be realized
By sharing it with the world -
Follow the rhythm
In your own chest
And always remember...
We Need You In This Time.
To be fasting from all these commercial eyes
That feed us all bullshit and lies
Of who we aught to be - Inside
Of who we aught to be!
Designed by an Enterprise
That wasn't built by me.
Have no fear,
The end is coming near
The walls are crumbling down
Simple words are now profound
Silent halls filled with the sound
Of a gracious people proud
To exist on such a ground
After all we had to hide
After every hero died
All the little people cried
Choking on our Hope,
But there's still something alive!
We're still singing inside!
There's still Something Alive!
We're still Singing Inside!
We Need You In This Time!
To be yourself
To be courageous
And know that,
Who I am is never a Competition
And, What I love is never in Resistance
No, Who I am is never a Opposition
And, What I love is never in Resistance
You see,
I'm just a blade of grass
Loving the open air
I'm just a bird in flight
Reminding you I'm here
You're not alone
There's a tribe just beyond the river bend
Who knows you as their own
No you will never be alone
Even if you wish to go,
Even if you wish to go
You are never far from home
No we know you as our own
We know you as our own
And we're here to remind you,
We're here to help you remember
And we're here to remind you,
We're here to help you remember
The We Need You In This Time.
