There’s a reason for love
There’s a way to forever
There's a prideness to swallow
And a trip into never

But the nothing was shallow
As I waded in calm
And the heroes of another time
Came screaming out the law

They were laymans
They laid bricks
The had neutral understandings
Of the way a clock would tick

They wrote down the angles
And charted out the stars
They thought a simple divine message
made the world as ours

Ambitious, overcoming
A look with wild eyes,
These people they believe in
The earth the wind the skies

They never meant a battle
Just retaliated strife
The white man thought a revelation
The red man lived for life

Now it’s a complicated system
Of values vs. belief
A warming of the atmosphere
A grinding of the teeth.

This turned into the Indians
The Europes and conquest,
But it’s all about a girl I love
And the love that I have left

She used to make me do these things
And I assume that she still does
She’s appeared from out of nowhere,
But still settles like it was.
