lyrics

Drop your rocks
But make your stand
And take your place in Crystal Land
With feeble cars on needle wheels
And jagged dogs that stalk our heels

Is there nowhere left to run?
Will we fall into the sun?
This season of dreams
Has only just begun
In Crystal Land alive beneath the sun

In a box on the 14th floor
With lots of rocks
To stone the Kings of War
Whose fists mean Business...
Eyes the Bitter Clown
If we miss
This world comes crashing down

Eyes on stalks that wilt with dawn
A steel egg unbinds all form
A field of glass...
A double sun
What once was two
Has now been joined as one
