If we stand here together,
And we see the world as one,
We may think there`s no future,
But it`s the same for everyone.
It`s like the world has lost it`s head
And it`s like all the prophets said
But will we arise to a new world?

If we stand here together,
We can laugh at what we`ve done,
All our time has been wasted,
And there`s nowhere left to run.
There may be trouble up ahead
Will we be sleeping in our beds
Or will we arise to a new world?

Look for signs and portents
Oh, I`m looking for a reason to believe

Will we arise in our time at the dawn of another meaning?
Will we awake at the break of a Great Hosannah?
Well if there`s nothing left to do,
Just hold your breath and hope it`s true
That we`ll arise.

. . .


Alien identities don`t hide your pretty face from me,
You awoke to the riddle of your life but no-one was there for you,
Open to where you first began as a nicotine junkie, singing for a kodacam,
Are you glad to see how far you`ve come?

You`re a wizard in a blizzard,
A mystical machine gun!

Watch the skies,
For the mystical machine gun fire.

Alien identities don`t hide that special place from me,
You walked through a fire with a ten headed lion and turned on your destiny,
Open up, forget your life,
Breathe in, breathe out, retain a sense of suicide,
Are you glad to see how far you`ve come?

You`re a wizard in a blizzard,
A mystical machine gun!

Watch the skies,
For the mystical machine gun fire.

Well you`ve got to be stronger now than them,
Now you`ve got to be strong
You`ll be singing the song of life `til then,
You`ll just have to be strong.

. . .


Blood transfusion, revolution,
Satellites on Mars,
Man became the spawn of Satan,
Driving round in cars.

I read the news but the news didn`t fascinate,
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate.

This is the age of decay and hipocrisy,
Sometimes I feel like the world isn`t ready for me.

Every time I turn a microscopic worm is telling me he`s it,
Dressed in robes of cosmic ego, crawling around in shit.

I read the news but the news didn`t fascinate,
I stayed at home, watched the media ejaculate.

This is the age of decay and hipocrisy,
Sometimes I feel like the world isn`t ready for me.

. . .


Radhe, radhe, radhe,
Jay, jay, jay sri radhe

. . .


I was sure I heard you singing
While my head was broken up
While my world in flames was rearranged

I`m still here.
In a blazing forest fire,
In a web of my own desires,
In a place that we are destined to return,

On an ocean I can`t fathom,
In a truth I can`t unravel,
I`m still here.
I`m still here.

. . .


Shower your love on me,
Don`t make it so hard to cry.
Shower your love on me,
You don`t need a reason why.

Cause I`m not even half the way there,
But I`m just too stupid to care,
So help me now
Before I`m through.

The scenes in my open mind
Confusion and flashing lights
Shower your love on me,
Cause nothing here feels right.

Cause I`m not even half the way there,
But I`m just too stupid to care,
So help me now,
I`ve done all I can do.
Shower your love on me...

I can`t wait, I`m losing faith,
Like we may just explode,
Oh,comfort me with a melody,
Show me that I'm gonna know the answer,
Show me that I'm gonna know

Shower your love on me,
Don't make it so hard to cry.
Shower your love on me,
You don't need a reason why,
Don't make it so hard to cry.
Shower your love on me,
Shower your love on me.

. . .


There`s something on my mind but
I don`t want to talk about it,
I`m saying my goodbyes, though we haven`t begun to party

Oh baby, it`s all a catastrophe,
Oh lover, it`s not how it used to be,
I`m just a man who`s battling with his mind.
One hundred and eight battles within the...
Minds forever changing what you began,
Life`s a waste of time,
Minds forever changing what you began,
Battle with your mind.
There`s magic in my eyes but
I don`t want to look into it,

There`s thunder in the skies and
I`m frightened of what it`s doing.

Oh baby, it`s all a catastrophe,
Oh lover, it`s not how it used to be,
I`m just a man who`s battling with his mind.
One hundred and eight battles within the...
Minds forever changing what you began,
Life`s a waste of time,
Minds forever changing what you began,

Battle with your mind.

. . .


Aah, aah, aah, aah
I hear the sound of drums on a melody,
I hear the sound of drum,
Well singing the names above in the city, yeah, revolution for fun

I feel the time has come like a remedy,
I feel the time has come,
We`re shaking the spear of love in the city, yeah,
I hear the sound of drum

Yeah, yeah, can you feel the love for me, yeah yeah

I feel the time has come,
I hear the sound of drum

I hear the sound of drums on a melody, calling me to return,
Well light up and catch the sun,
`Cause its gonna be revolution for fun

Yeah, yeah, can you feel the love for me, yeah, yeah

I feel the time has come,
I hear the sound of drum, drum

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Well I feel the time has come with a melody,
I see the golden one,
Well I`m not the only one with the remedy,
I`m not the only one

I feel the time has come,
I hear the sound of drum, drum

. . .


Oh brother please. We are born to this world again,
How can we see when we`re travelling in time?

Love is the key, and the key is the name my friend,
When will we see that we`re travelling in time?

Know that your soul is on fire like a million suns,
Burn like a star and be travelling in time.

. . .


If we stand here together,
We may say our last farewell,
To the lives of illusion,
And the time we`ve spent in hell.

Will we arise in our time at the dawn of another meaning?
And a Great Hosannah, Great Hosannah.

. . .


Well I called you the keeper of my heart,
Cause I felt that you`d been waiting there from the start,
From the start, yeah.
Well you said "do you remember who you are?
Did you know you fell from heaven like a star?"
Would we like to be that way again?

Born beside a holy river, darkened moon eclipse the future,
Your name is gold forever, your name is gold forever.

Well they call you the Golden Avatar,
But nobody really knows you as you are,
And we`d like to see you shine,
Yeah we`d like to see you shine.

I can see by the light that you shine on me,
If I could surrender tomorrow,
That the flames of fire inviting me,
Are sending me further and further away.

Further and further and further and further away!

. . .

vrajangana-sunayakam sada sukha pradayakam
jaganmanah pralobhanam namami nanda-nandanam

namaminanda-nandanam (repeat ad infinitum)
