Arcadia (The Great Escape)

Can we start again? Can we raise an era? Who are we who reign? Blinded by the fear Just a rope of sand Makes the world go round Lost and out of hand The coda in the sound Far into the silence The resonation stays Abandoning the violence The exit from the maze Time is out of joint Reason is a loanword Where's the counterpoint? (In) the symphony unheard The stories have been told By wolfs in the fold Sailing on the fairway of a lie They came to tear the grace And show a changing face A lurid cup of hemlock they supply Far beyond the afterglow When all around is touch and go For as long as the waters flow Hold on, dream on A light from afar Be on, the great escape In Arcadia The change of paradigm The hills we have to climb The great escape, the riddance is our way Into cascading light An innervated sight A long decisive turn, the place to stay Far beyond the afterglow When all around is touch and go For as long as the waters flow Hold on, dream on A light from afar Be on, the great escape In Arcadia
