Wisdom, Justice And Love
"I come to this magnificent house of worship tonight because my conscience leaves me no other choice. A true revolution of values will lay hands on the world order and say of war: "This way of settling differences is not just." This business of burning human beings with napalm, of filling our nation's homes with orphans and widows, of injecting poisonous drugs of hate into veins of people normally humane, of sending men home from dark and bloody battlefields physically handicapped and psychologically deranged, cannot be reconciled with wisdom, justice and love." - (Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence by Rev. Martin Luther King - 4 April 1967)
Iridescent
When you were standing in the wake of devastation When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown And with the cataclysm raining down Insides crying, "Save me now!" You were there, impossibly alone
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure’s all you’ve known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go. Let it go
And in a burst of light that blinded every angel As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars You felt the gravity of tempered grace Falling into empty space No one there to catch you in their arms
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure’s all you’ve known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go. Let it go
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure’s all you’ve known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go. Let it go
Let it go Let it go Let it go Let it go
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure’s all you’ve known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go. Let it go

I’m swimming in the smoke Of bridges I have burned So don’t apologize I’m losing what I don’t deserve
The blame is mine alone For bridges I have burned So don’t apologize I’m losing what I don’t deserve What I don’t deserve
The Catalyst
[x2:] God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun. And it can't be outfought, It can't be outdone, It can't be outmatched, It can't be outrun. No!
And when I close my eyes tonight, To symphonies of blinding light!
God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun. Oh!
Like memories in cold decay, Transmissions echoing away, Far from the world of you and I, Where oceans bleed into the sky!
[x2:] God save us everyone, Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, The sins of our tongues, The sins of our fathers, The sins of our young. No!
And when I close my eyes tonight, To symphonies of blinding light!
God save us everyone, Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
Ooh!
Like memories in cold decay, Transmissions echoing away, Far from the world of you and I, Where oceans bleed into the sky!
Oh! Like memories in cold decay, Transmissions echoing away, Far from the world of you and I, Where oceans bleed into the sky.
[x10:] Lift me up, Let me go...
God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun And it can't be outfought, It can't be outdone, It can't be outmatched, It can't be outrun. No!
God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun. And it can't be outfought, It can't be outdone, It can't be outmatched, It can't be outrun.
The Messenger
When you feel you're alone Cut off from this cruel world Your instinct's telling you to run
Listen to your heart Those angel voices They'll sing to you They'll be your guide Back home
When life leaves us blind Love keeps us kind It keeps us kind
When you've suffered enough And your spirit is breaking You're growing desperate from the fight
Remember you're loved And you always will be This melody will bring you right Back home
When life leaves us blind Love keeps us kind When life leaves us blind Love keeps us kind
