PEASANTS, PIGS & ASTRONAUTS (1999)

If we stand here together
And we see the world as one
We may think there's no future
But it's the same for everyone
It's like the world has lost its head
And it's like all the prophets said
But will we arise to a new world
If we stand here together
We can laugh at what we've done
All our time has been wasted
And there's nowhere left to run
There may be trouble up ahead
Will we be sleeping in our beds
Or will we arise to a new world?
Look for signs and portents
I'm looking for a reason to believe
Will we arise in our time
At the dawn of another meaning?
Will we awake at the break of a great hosannah?
Well, if there's nothing left to do
Just hold your breath and hope it's true
That we'll arise

Alien identities don't hide your pretty face from me, 
You awoke to the riddle of your life but no-one was there for you, 
Open to where you first began as a nicotine junkie, singing for a kodacam, 
Are you glad to see how far you've come? 
You're a wizard in a blizzard, 
A mystical machine gun! 
Watch the skies, 
For the mystical machine gun fire. 
Alien identities don't hide that special place from me, 
You walked through a fire with a ten headed lion and turned on your destiny, 
Open up, forget your life, 
Breathe in, breathe out, retain a sense of suicide, 
Are you glad to see how far you've come? 
You're a wizard in a blizzard, 
A mystical machine gun! 
Watch the skies, 
For the mystical machine gun fire. 
Well you've got to be stronger now than them, 
Now you've got to be strong 
You'll be singing the song of life 'til then, 
You'll just have to be strong.

Man became the spawn of Satan, driving 'round in cars
I read the news but the news didn't fascinate
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate

This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me

Every time I turn, a microscopic worm is telling me, he's it
Dressed in the robes of cosmic ego, crawling 'round in [?]
I read the news but the news didn't fascinate
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate

This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me

This is the age of 'Decay' and 'Hypocrisy'
Sometimes I feel like the world isn't ready for me

I was sure I heard you singing
While my head was broken up
While my world in flames
Was rearranged
I'm still here
In a blazing forest fire
In a web of my own desire
In a place that we are destined to return
On an ocean I can't fathom
In a truth I can't unravel
I'm still here
I'm still here

Shower your love on me
Don't make it so hard to cry
Shower your love on me
You don't need a reason why

'Cause I'm not even half the way there
But I'm just too stupid to care
So help me now
When I've fallen through

There are scenes in my open mind
Confusion and flashing lights
Shower your love on me
'Cause nothing here feels right

'Cause I'm not even half the way there
But I'm just too stupid to care
So help me now
When I've done all I can do

Shower your love on me
I can't wait; I'm losing faith
Like we might just explode
Comfort me with a melody

Show me that I'm gonna know the answer
Show me that I'm gonna know

Shower your love on me
Don't make it so hard to cry
Shower your love on me
You don't need a reason why
Don't make it so hard to cry
Shower your love on me
Shower your love on me

There's something on my mind
But I don't want to talk about it,
I'm saying my goodbyes though we haven't begun to party

Oh baby, it's all a catastrophe,
Oh lover, it's not how it used to be.

I'm just a man who's battling with his mind.
A hundred and eight battles within the...

Mind's forever changing what you began,
Life's a waste of time,
Mind's forever changing what you began,
Battle with your mind.

There's magic in my eyes
But I don't want to look into it,
There's thunder in the skies
And I'm frightened of what it's doing.

Oh baby, it's all a catastrophe,
Oh lover, it's not how it used to be.

I'm just a man who's battling with his mind.
A hundred and eight battles within the...

Mind's forever changing what you began,
Life's a waste of time,
Mind's forever changing what you began,
Battle with your mind.

Aah, aah, aah, aah
I hear the sound of drums on a melody, I hear the sound of drum,
Well singing the names above in the city, yeah, revolution for fun
I feel the time has come like a remedy, I feel the time has come,
We're shaking the spear of love in the city, yeah, I hear the sound of drum
Yeah, yeah, can you feel the love for me, yeah yeah
I feel the time has come, I hear the sound of drum
I hear the sound of drums on a melody, calling me to return,
Well light up and catch the sun, 'cause its gonna be revolution for fun
Yeah, yeah, can you feel the love for me, yeah, yeah
I feel the time has come, I hear the sound of drum, drum
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Well I feel the time has come with a melody, I see the golden one,
Well I'm not the only one with the remedy, I'm not the only one
I feel the time has come, I hear the sound of drum, drum

Oh brother, please
We are born to this world again
How can we see
When we're traveling in time?
Love is the key
And the key is the name, my friend
When will we see that we're 
Travelling in time?
Know that your soul
Is on fire
Like a million suns
Burn like a star
And be traveling in time

Well, I called you the keeper of my heart
'Cause I felt that you'd been there, waiting from the start
From the start, yeah
Well, you said: "Do you remember who you are?
Did you know you fell from heaven, like a star?"
Would we like to be that way again?

Born beside a holy river
Darkened moon eclipsed the future
Your name is gold forever
Your name is gold forever

Well, they call you the Golden Avatar
But nobody really knows you as you are
And we'd like to see you shine
Yeah, we'd like to see you shine

I can see by the light that you shine on me
If I could surrender tomorrow
That the flames of fire inviting me
Are sending me further and further away
Further and further, and further, and further away!

Sucaru vaktra mandalam sukarna ratna kundalam
Sucarcitanga candanam namami nanda nandana
Vrajangana sunayakam sada sukha pradayakam
Jaganmanah pralobhanam namami nanda nandanam
