You set your love by condition, and conditioned me
Set your claws for your comfort, wild thing no longer free
To support your addiction, laying down the rules
Create reality alternate, fiction - and freedom to choose
All the ways that I can lose
to you…
(I’m not the problem
For the hero to solve)
You call it home
(I’m Not the villain
For the victim to absolve)
But you don’t know
It’s my cage…
Blinded by the gaslight
I cannot see the door swing….
Hearing the click, the turn, the key
My heart a drum beating faster, nowhere to turn
Such a skillful puppet master, when will I ever learn?
A sound of disdain, Look what you made me do!
An old adage, so cliche’, but tried and true
I’ve got to learn to protect my love
from you…
(I’m not the problem
For the hero to solve)
You call it home
(I’m Not the villain
For the victim to absolve)
But you don’t know
It’s my cage…
Promises, promises
The lies you throw away
Deny tomorrow what you promised me today

Hear me, Lord of the Stars!
For thee I have worshipped ever
With stains and sorrows and scars,
With joyful, joyful endeavour.
Hear me, O lily-white goat!
O crisp as a thicket of thorns,
With a collar of gold for Thy throat,
A scarlet bow for thy horns!
Here, in the dusty air,
I build Thee a shrine of yew.
All green is the garland I wear,
But I feed it with blood for dew!
After the orange bars
That ribbed the green west dying
Are dead, O Lord of the Stars,
I come to Thee, come to Thee crying.
The ambrosial moon that arose
With breasts slow heaving in splendour
Drops wine from her infinite snows,
Ineffably, utterly tender.
O moon! ambrosial moon!
Arise on my desert of sorrow,
That the magical eyes of me swoon
With lust of rain to-morrow!
Ages and ages ago
I stood on the bank of a river,
Holy and holy and holy, I know,
For ever and ever and ever!
A priest in the mystical shrine,
I muttered a redeless rune,
Till the waters were redder than wine
In the blush of the harlot moon.
I and my brother priests
Worshipped a wonderful woman
With a body lithe as a beast's,
Subtly, horribly human.
Deep in the pit of her eyes
I saw the image of death,
And I drew the water of sighs
From the well of her lullaby breath.
She sitteth veiled for ever,
Brooding over the waste.
She hath stirred or spoken never.
She is fiercely, manly chaste!
What madness make me awake
From the silence of utmost eld
The grey cold slime of the snake
That her poisonous body held?

Wind in the willows, laughter in the tree,
Down by the riverside we're celebrating Spring
Bathe me in liquid sunshine, Baptized by the flame.
Breathing deep, the love of life is flowing through my veins.
Never been cool, 'cause it's to close to cold
Won't waste half my lifetime sitting round getting old
Moments so sweet the passing feels like agony
That's the way on days like these.
Down by the riverside, hear natures song,
Timeless and pour, sing along, sing along!
On days like these if seems I'm living in a fantasy
Inspiration comes to easily
It all seems new, although I do remember when
And you aint got a where you are without a where you been
Never been cool, 'cause it's to close to cold
Won't waste half my lifetime sitting round getting old
Moments so sweet the passing feels like agony
That's the way on days like these.
Down by the riverside, hear natures song,
Timeless and pour, sing along, sing along!
Down by the riverside the Lord did say
"Who told you you was naked?"
and he turned us all away
I'm going back, it's not as far as it might seem,
Paradise is here and now so long as we all believe.
I got to tell you, this is the place to be
One with nature, living and free
Here I am, and here I'll stay
Until the man comes down to carry me away, I'll be...
Down by the riverside, hear natures song,
Timeless and pour, sing along, sing along!
