Story behind the song
The last line of the song is a quote from my (then) three-year-old
Lyrics
Great Divide Helplessness, like the dream that you're falling Nothing is holding you badk As you hit the earth takes a swallow Sucking you into the black Born the twins of a mother before the great divide Dance with me for the nobles, a carnival of pride The actors and singers all beg in the streets While the wokers walk home in the dark The baroness licks from her fingers The blood of a journeyman's heart Born the twins of a mother before the great divide Dance with me for the nobles, a carnival of pride Born the twins of a mother before the great divide Dance with me for the nobles, a carnival of pride Whose idea were you anyway? (c) 1999 Sanford A. Mixon (BMI)
