I Make All Things New

 

This country is the most caring, safe…
Nah! Nah! Nah! Nah! Nah!
Why would I ever want to leave this place?
Not! Not! Not! Not! Not!
You can’t talk to anyone, anyway
the best thing that you can do is pray

Our leaders mostly all give, not take…
La! La! La! La! La!
What they do rarely makes me that afraid
Not! Not! Not! Not! Not!
Most everything’s fake
Deception’s their name
Consumption’s their game

How conscious are we?
We’re not always sharp when fatigued
and then we forget
when tired, making
mistakes at the end of the day
and this is the end
the hour we spend
the tower we dread
the powerful friend
the flower that’s bent

Our workers are the most highly trained…
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Why should I ever think they’d make mistakes?
Not! Not! Not! Not! Not!
Sometimes, I want to get away
I want to escape
I dream of that day

A home with no evil
where no one cries
and where there’s no greed and
where no one lies

Do I think there is such a place?

Well, I’ve caught a glimpse of it with my eyes
And it’s just a matter of time
When we start to gather, know why
When you see us happy, say bye
When we turn our backs and just fly

I will fly right…out of here!
Higher than the birds
higher than the planes
higher than the clouds
higher than the rain
Further than the satellites
further than the rockets
further than the asteroids
further than the comets
To the next universe
To the NEW universe
When I fly right…out of here!
Never to look back again
