Lyrics
Rain dissolves into an acid sky
Emerald water, Nature Ionized
Death, Crime, Hunger, Sex Disease, Race wars
Their solution is inventing god
Masquerading in decaying norms
Stark reactionary placid hybrid forms
Rebels fostering misguided plans
This situations getting out of hand
But I know that my space is my mind, Inventing time
And I feel that these voices are real as they tear from inside
Spurn technologies association breeding
Evolutionary reversal
Theyll create some feeble master plan
My solution's reinventing man
And I know that my heart is my mind, Caressing time
And I feel that these forces are real but I hold them inside
As you face one more day of atrocities
And your mind getting raped by philosophies
And your pressed to succumb to conformities
Corroding an invitational.....
Come Home, Come Home, Come Home, Come Home
Of spells reads broken mimes
History redefined
Solitude sickens astral bigotry
In growing numbers breed
Celestial leaches feed
And as I struggle with propriety
In stages resurrecting
The people youre protecting
And in success detecting
Greed's insatiable injecting
Corrupt competition,
Crooked politician
The time is ripe for transition
As I come to my decision
(And I) know that my cross is my mind
Bleeding through time
And I feel that these voices are real in my head
Never to awaken through these boundaries inside
And I know that its hard to create avalon
As I stand at the edge of a world
And I wake each new day
Yet I know that direction is gone
As you face one more day of humanity
And your mind getting raped by society
And your pressed to conditional insanity
Inviting a nuclear dawn.....
Come Home
There must be some kind of master plan
Come Home
My solution's reinventing man
Come Home
Sick of living in hypocrisy
Come Home
Safe inside my inner sanctuary
