To The Lighthouse

The day our house collapsed
I went down stream.
I followed the swans
Like i follow my dreams
Oh I was living on borrowed time in a
Borrowed house for a borrowed crime
In need of help i came to your door
Saw the spike of the railings from
The 28/3rd floor
Singing
"build your castle, stop collecting stones
And the river bed shall not be your home"
To the lighthouse my friend!
I bless your words and education
To the lighthouse my friend
Just go! just go!
To the lighthouse my friend.
I am sorry that you came to find
"great great minds
Against themselves conspire"
Now the bombs drop around our feet
Do we throw them back
Or bow and greet them.
Everyone now, is so terrifyed
Of the glowing dark
And those orange skies
Sing it:
"build your castle, stop throwing stones
Cos' those fire birds are
Coming down on our homes"
To the lighthouse my friends
It cannot even be a question
To the lighthouse my friends
We must go, we must go
To the lighthouse my friends
It cannot even be a question
To the lighthouse my friends
We must go, we must go
Great great minds
Against themselves conspire
