Connection |
Warm… round the hunting fire |
Wrapped in the robes of the dead warrior |
Protected from ferocious winds |
Under the shield of the dead gladiator |
Standing in the darkness of this stagecraft |
All is black I cannot see your faces I need |
Light I want to see your eyes |
Let my voice wash over your faces |
Connection |
Connection |
Whoaa ohhh |
A hundred thousand years ago |
People livin' in bone white cities |
Comin' and goin' on streets of silver |
Talkin' future history |
Then something very strong went wrong |
And suddenly |
People gathered round the hunting fires |
(Huddled in caves like animal, not human) |
Round the warmth of the late night fire |
Cities gone, memories fading |
Spend their lives round the late night fire |
Give their souls to the hunting fire |
Seeking each other’s company |
Tryin' to remember ancient history |
They lost connection |
They lost contact |
They need to touch you |
Reach out across the ages and touch you |
Meanwhile somewhere in the 20th century |
A young girl named Phoebe Caulfield |
Plops herself down on the sofa |
Pops open a soda and watches you |
She likes to watch murderer talk |
She likes to see them on my TV |
She likes to watch them how they walk |
She likes to hear what they say |
It’s like a car crash |
Bloody fascination |
You wonder how they get their shoes tied |
Sit and stare at the horror there |
She knows you watch them too |
Stranglers, murderers, snipers, terrorists |
Political assassins, crazy ones, cool ones |
All them looking for |
Connection |
They lost contact |
They lost direction |
They need sexual, mystical |
Magical, uninterrupted, Peter Gabriel like |
Contact |
Here I am |
Again inside |
This darkness |
All is black |
I cannot see your future |
Give me light |
I want to see your eyes |
Just a little light |
Inside your future |
A small connection |
Connection |
Ah!!! |
I’d like to see Jesus and Mohammad |
On the road to Damascus |
What did you think they would say |
Would they fight with knives clenched in their teeth |
Like Jews and Arabs today |
Or would they walk and speak |
Like philosophers and thinkers |
Amused at each other’s insights |
Relishing the brain waves there |
Round the warmth of the hunting fire |
Eager for, hungry for |
They got to have |
You know they love |
Connection |
Contact |
Communion |
And let our two great religions |
Cease their senseless struggle |
It only hurts the children |
Connection |
Connection |
