Lyrics

The great man he walks upon the stage
The little men are all dancing in his cage
And there’s a sea they say we’ll never cross
But I believe the ship has not been lost
Take a trip into the desert
Climb atop the tallest mountain
To the land where the milk and honey flow
Take a journey to the caveman
Sail away with the ancient spaceman
To a foreign land beneath your nose

Why can’t you read my mind
Why can’t you read my mind
The mystery is plain to see
Why can’t you free my mind

The people sing of glories all forgot
And people starve near silos filled with rot
And there’s a wall that no one seems to see
It separates the captives from the free
What’s it take to make transition
Do we need a new magician
To make the daydreams disappear
While people stare at naked empires
Little children light the bonfires
To burn the dreams of yester-year

All my dreams are cloaked in daylight
All my prayers shine through the twilight
There ain’t no hidden messages here
All my words they form a river
Jump right in and be delivered
Open your mind and you will hear
