Before the earth was born
The universe was adorned
With a song that swept the stars
With a sound that formed the planets
It's unlike anything else, you see
It's something we cannot hear
But even if it is something we cannot hear
It is something that we can be
Despite it's soundless presence
The song is unforgettable
Each sound brings a warming sensation
Of a dawning iridescence
And then the earth was born
The song was drowned out
The sound was scorned
We found a different song and sound
We called it humanity
We called it politics and law
We called it insanity
The new world likes to say,
"This is how we are now,
These are our new ways."
Now everyone walks the same
Everyone talks the same
The beat of one's own drum
Is synchronized with every other beat
Those who challenge logic are rare
To see one go against the flow is strange
These are the ones who shape the future
These are the ones who will recover the song
They'll revive the sound
Unless, however
They are crushed by limitations
They are boxed in by debt
They are killed by their own mind'
Because being original is not accepted
Being yourself is not free
Being different is frowned upon
But if you find the song
If you stumble upon the sound
Embrace it, for it is your heart
It is the life that cannot be taken away
It is what all others have failed to do
It is the pursuit of happiness
It is the achievement of peace
The song and sound
Are one in the same
The song and sound
Are not yet forgotten
Nice
Like this.
