Milk And Honey |
| O what fools these mortals be, |
| so tragic and so funny |
| Ships of bones that sail the sea, |
| for lands of milk and honey |
| The promise of perfection sighs |
| into each mortal ear |
| Never to be realized, |
| that’s how it is 'round here. |
| Bound to some relentless gyre, |
| dispassionate and true |
| Paying the price for ice and fire, |
| that’s what God’s children do. |
| Sacrifice love’s mystery |
| for fantasy and pleasure |
| Doomed to repeat history, |
| forever and ever. |
| Wayward world I weep for thee, |
| spinning 'round the sun |
| Wellspring of diversity |
| your roads all lead to one road |
| What man has loosed upon the sea, |
| cannot be undone |
| O what fools we mortals be, |
| each and every one |
| Each and every one. |
