lirik lagu jump, little children – reality distortion field
rapt by a vision of gluttony and avarice
stupefied, agog at the baby king
but still we croon through the night
oh my stars i wish us well
sway in the light
resuscitate the nightingale
try to be kind
i long to be
elusive phantom
ethereal vision
of a trace of a shadow of a conscience
the herione’s no longer in the mood
the novelist’s forgotten how to brood
the stage was set
he wouldn’t forget the place
they first met
now a dragnet
her palms were wet with cold sweat, and yet –
no fear now, no doubt
her conscience was steady
without a route for any way out
she scouted the room once more –
then a secret, sweet and safe
from life’s downpour outdoors
a place where they had explored
every pore and contour
waking both heartsore
and ready to ignore the rain
and the pain of trying to feign
love that had waned
they both knew it was insane
he said it was impossible to sustain (maintain)
so now only she remained
dissolving in the twilights afterglow
breathing in the ether soft and slow
blurry-eyed and slurring empty hymns
reality embraced by phantom limbs
reflections of the swans out on the lake
envision something real by mistake
the venom in the vein so discreet
the poison in the apple sickly sweet
reality distortion field carried ad nauseam
reality distortion field carried ad nauseam
the anger, a scythe
a blight on her otherwise
shiny white life
what’s done was done
and now – be numb?
no, she’s the sum
of generations of strong worded songs
speaking against wrongs
her women sang along
and so would she
and her shiny new cutting machine
that teemed with with
feelings of being and gave her
reasons to feel serene…
her dream so dark but right
he took her sight
started this fight away from the light
and now she could plan
this man would never command
as long as she took a stand
the stage was set
this time he wouldn’t forget
she knew it was insane to refrain from giving power to this pain
but only she could remain
only she would remain
dissolving in the twilights afterglow
breathing in the ether soft and slow
blurry-eyed and slurring empty hymns
reality embraced by phantom limbs
reflections of the swans out on the lake
envision something real by mistake
the venom in the vein so discreet
the poison in the apple sickly sweet
reality distortion field carried ad nauseam
reality distortion field carried ad nauseam
