Taste the black and white keys Caked with the blood of passion Sweep the streets of keyless doors Find the lock that fits under the trees Ration the waves of this nation And the lonely desert breeze I have seen the golden sheen In the alchemy of ages gone I have worn the berserker's skin And sung the piper's song I have heard the sound of earth And I have learned the beating of the land I have learned that God can not be captured By any mortal man The tower will always fall But flight will forever be ambition The human soul is impregnable The revolution never asks permission To place that first brick down Take more than it's been given To see God within the clouds And pull him down to be forgiven
