story behind the song: elections, democracies bestest example of a popularity contest still works just like it always did, at the high school level or just below. Its always neat when someone who gets less than 50% of the vote gets to run things. And capitalism rotfl, corporate communism is the rule. I'll get off my soapbox now
Lyrics
all the hot air
ballooning for all time
all the hatred
crossing those fine lines
still history
circling in her spite
laughing as we relearn
what the world was like
as she writes
our world is gone
to black and white
cause colours wrong
shrouds of summer
reflected in the rain
autumn myths
lies reborn again
still beating hearts
bleeding out in same
til winters kiss
seals everything
autumn writes
and summers gone
ink black to white
as winter comes
palaces, dreams and snow
entrance us beyond the known
what we've done, oh what we've sown
wonder when the spring comes what will grow ...
