we must talk on every telephone get eaten off the web
we must rip out all the epilogues from the books that we have read
and to the face of every criminal strapped firmly to a chair
we must stare, we must stare, we must stare
we must take all of the medicine too expensive now to sell
set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
and in the ear of every anarchist that sleeps but doesn't dream
we must sing, we must sing, we must sing
it'll go like this alright
While my mother waters plants my father loads his gun
he say death will give us back to god, just like the setting sun
is returned to the lonesome ocean
And then they splashed into the deep blue sea
Oh, it was a wonderful splash
we must blend into the choir sing a static with the whole
we must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul
and in this endless race for property and privilege to be won
we must run, we must run, we must run
we must hang up in the belfry where the bats and moonlight laugh
we must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
and into the caverns of tomorrow with just our flashlight and our love
we must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge
And then we'll get down there, way down to the very bottom of everything
And then we'll see it, oh we'll see it, we'll see it, we'll see it
oh my morning's coming back the whole world's waking up
this city bus swimming past I'm happy just because
I found out I am really no one
