live in a Geodesic Dome in the Forest of Dean, UK.
The dust is settling
And the cobwebs become clear
It's time now for a change
'cause the scene'll never be the same
Like any rock thrown into a pool
Changes the landscape deep
and everything in between
But once the calm returns back to the waters
To any traveller on the road,
The surface looks just the same.
Ripples on the waters
Be careful how you move
The smaller pools look calm to see...
Edges lap so peacefully
But Ripples on the waters only
Take a breath to return gently
Or turn around reflecting quickly
To tell you what they make of who you are.
And this time is so far reaching
And some are so rarely so disturbed
They'll take a while to catch themselves
Cause the daggers are out and so are the flowers
And the clever ones have "Peace" on their lips
A dagger in one hand
And a flower in the other
But I know it's just a matter of time
Before their will and sight align
And they stay or play their hand.
