Slow Revolution |
Martin was bright as he stood up and sang in the choir |
His heart all in pieces was breaking; |
his head was on fire |
They took him from that place and they buried him deep in the ground |
Out with the light and quiet the sound |
And it’s a slow revolution that quietly turns |
As the true word burns |
And all of the people marching together out 'cross the floor |
And all that was after is now as it was before |
Now Sylvia sat staring out into the depths of a room |
A moment of light from her brain cut through the dark and pierced the gloom |
The children’s voices were music |
Came faint through the wall |
From such a great height she looked down; |
it was only the fall |
And it’s a slow revolution that quietly turns |
As the true word burns |
And all of the people marching, stomping out 'cross the floor |
And all that was after is now as it was before |
So look at the shadows bent forward |
Trying to break through the night |
Huddled against the darkness |
So close to the light |
My voice is breaking out here in this wilderness |
For I see a time that is coming; |
I see a time of change |
The sun is burning the deserts, but water’s filling the plains |
Noah is crazily chipping away at his ark |
While all of us ready ourselves to go into the dark |
And it’s a slow revolution that quietly turns |
As the true word burns |
And all of the people marching, dancing out 'cross the floor |
And all of this matter soon won’t matter much anymore |
