Electrical Dream

Songs arise from
       the ground
   Eyes which have 
known sorrow
       are quite delighted
by the waves of white 
   billowing forth from
the earth
    You can touch these 
songs
    as they wrap themselves 
around you
    Didn't seem to know
which way to turn
     for a while there
But the earth itself 
    holds answers
    Shining moon above
provides all the light we 
    need
We can read the runes
   which have been carved
into the mountainside
   Eerie feeling 
          when the ancient world 
comes to life
         Our ancestors won't
forsake us
        Lift up your head
        Sing the electrical 
dream
       There's nothing here
which will prevent you
       from moving 
  towards the sky
as your voice cuts through 
    the clouds above 
    you'll be lifted into 
    an electrical dream
Don't worry about the 
     consequences!
