In the Mountain in the Cloud

If pain was a color to paint on you,
Your heart would be the color blue.
Be a painting, hung up there til your body met your head.
Which were made of silver.

You are the one they call Jesus Christ.
Who didn't know no rock and roll.
Just a mission made of guns that they give boys in Vietnam
But they always told him

There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.

So who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules? hey

They said
Every one of you will never try to lend a hand
When the police men don't understand.

Oh tell your boys, all you boys
Think you're so American.
Girls, all you girls
They're so American.

He may not be born of this land
But he was born of this world.
He was born of all the mothers
And the colors of our brothers
And the love that was started

You are the one they call Jesus Christ.
Hey may not know no rock and roll.
There may not be a heaven,
Or a place in which to send you,
But you know in the end

There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.
There's a madness in us all.

So who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules?
Who broke the rules? Hey

Say
Every one of you will never try to lend a hand
When the police men don't understand.

Boys, all you boys
Think you're so American.
Girls, all you girls
They're so American.

There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all.
There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all.

Man, oh man
Think you're so American
Man, oh man.
Yeah you're so American

Man, oh man
Think you're so American
Man, oh man.
Yeah you're so American

There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all

There's two eyes for every one of us
But somebody got there first and took them all

As I finally meet my end
I won't be scared, I won't defend
The things I've done
I don't need him like you do
I don't fear him like you do

As the world revolves the sun
I hope the light that I become can
Sleep for once
I will leave it like you do
I won't lead it like you do
I won't leave it like they do
I don't need him like they do

I just want to sleep forever
Never see tomorrow
Or lead or follow
I don't want to work forever
Know what I know
Or beg or borrow

Just like our mothers
Who gave us our homes
We'll be just like our fathers
And go out on our own
'Cause we are the colors
In all that you see
We'll be just like our brothers
We'll take to the streets
Take to the streets

I just want to sleep forever
Never see tomorrow
Lead or follow

As my world it hides behind
The words only your wars define
They read a lot like news
But I fear it more than you
I fear it more than you

I just want to sleep forever
Never see tomorrow
Or lead or follow
I don't want to work forever
Know what I know
Or beg or borrow

Just like old lovers
Who never leave home
We'll forget the city
And forget the roads
'Cause we are all rebels
Never do what we're told
We may not grow money
But man we grow old
Man we grow old

I just want to sleep forever
Never see tomorrow
Or lead or follow
I don't want to work forever
Know what I know
Or beg or borrow

Just like our mothers
Who gave us our homes
We'll be just like our fathers
And go out on our own
'Cause we are the colors
In all that you see
We'll be just like our brothers
And take to the streets

'Cause we are all children
Yeah, we are all man
It may not be much
But we do what we can
Don't need no preacher
To make us believe
That everything's perfectly
Fucked up like me

I watched the words drip from you
And pour from your mouth like a sieve
I'll end like I did begin
Jump rope the stars in a game

But you were there too
We spit from the moon
And found their heads down below

I can't make no sense of this
I can't make no sense of this at all

Sad inconsistencies we see
When you find yourself lonely
But right next to me

Well I was there too
Just as lonely as you
But we found their heads down below

I can't make no sense of this
I can't make no sense of this at all
So what's this young man to do
What's this young man to do
What's this young man to do
What's this young man to do
What's this young man to do

And when the summer ends, yeah
I'll be there hiding
And when the sunrises, yeah
I'll stay warm forever

Many have come before, many have been
Where will we be when will it end
Many have come before many have been
Where will we be

We were there too
We spit from the moon
And found their heads down below

I can't make no sense of this
I can't make no sense of this at all
So what's this young man to do
What's this young man to do
What's this young man to do
What's this young man to do
What's this young man to do

And when the summer ends, yeah
I'll be there hiding
And when the sunrises, yeah
I'll stay warm forever
And when the summer ends, yeah
I'll be there hiding
And when the sunrises, yeah
I'll stay warm forever
And when the summer ends, yeah
I'll stay warm

Share with me the sun
You forget sometime it's ours
Can't you see you're not the only one
You're told to lead outside
Feel it sulk into your mind
Can't you see you're not the only one

As you slipped on down the length of my tongue
Did you taste the sun that i need home

You carried us all
Down from the stars
And up from the sea (Where everybody knew)
All you see, and all you hear
Is all you need, and all you breathe
While you create
And it's in your mind

Share with me the sun
We'll forget all that is ours
Forget me and all the things you see

The times already came in the news
It was the word that took your brain

You carried us all
Down from the stars
And up from the sea (Where everybody knew)
All you see, and all you hear
Is all you need, and all you breathe
While you create
And it's in your mind

There's nothing I can say or do
(There's nothing I can say or do)
And there's no light for me to see
(And there's no light for me to see)
So there was nothing left to do

You, You carried us all
Down from the stars
And up from the sea
You carried us all
Down from the stars
And up from the sea (where everybody knew)
All you see, and all you hear
Is all you need, and all you breathe
While you create
And it's in your mind

There's nothing I can say or do
(There's nothing I can say or do)
And there's no light for me to see
(And there's no light for me to see)
There was nothing left to do
There was nothing left to do

Of all us he had to know he'd never grow
He'd never climb, he'd never love like the love I know
When I was two and he was ten they carried me
Through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas

Once was born of light like you
Once was one but now I'm two
When I was born of love like you
When you were ten and I was two

There were two monkeys talking sounding like little dogs
They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines, singing
"We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"

If gathering is all we need to change the wind
For anything to die it needs first to begin

Once was born of light like you
Once was one but now I'm two
When I was born of love like you
When you were ten and I was two

There were two monkeys talking sounding like little dogs
They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines, singing
"We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"

In time, saw your future is not burning so bright
But if we live too long you'll live less like mine
"We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"

There were two monkeys talking sounding like little dogs
They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines, singing
"We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"

In time, if humans breed hate, love and lies would be traits of mine
But I was of the future, past and present time

Once was born of light like you
Once was one but now I'm two
When I was born of love like you
When you were ten and I was two
