Ohpeople killing people Kings to conquer kings Always in the seeker Taking the light Away from me Death comes to the seeker And death comes to the fool Death comes to us all one day Let the river of time swim over you Oh swim over you Oh time swim over you Mother fighting mother Children killing kings and kings and children too (help! I cant figure this one out!) Playin a different tune The music binds them ho The music binds them all The music binds them (another line to figure out) Stronger than the chain gang Smarter than the song Let the music bind them Each my face inside here? Teach my light to wear a different? I have many parents I have only one mother too Of the open west you waitin' Sprung me onto you Sprung me onto you That sprung me onto you I have many fathers But only one mother Sprung beyond emotion That sprung me onto you So I bring a word So I bring a word here So lights out away Death comes to the seeker Well death come to the fool yes he do Death comes to us all one day Sit back and let the river of time run over you Oh mother make them... Rhythm is the one I climb as The heartbeat of the time is beating on us Speaking of the time is beating on us Snap up the gate shut on yourself Snap up the gate shut on yourself Snap up the gate shut on yourself Snap up the gate shut on yourself Snap up the gate shut on yourself Snap up the gate shut on yourself Oh yeah Oh I was dreaming Oh....? Some people locked in cages With the keys on the inside With the keys on the inside Ahhh well awww too bad... (don't know) King to king oh many colors Paing the songs that roll to smother everyone Black as night oh black as night (don't know...) If you are in the corner Locked in the shadow Don't try to cast your shadow On the bear upon you (don't know) Just step out into the light Yes and let the sun shine bright on you Just step out into the light Yes and let the sun shine bright on you All these changes happen with changes One day as a good king One day as a bad king All the same in time Be your own king.
