The New Empire
It took years to build this etheric web
Just for you i built this vision
Held it at my center, breathed it into being
Drew smoke from the distant land
Life from the Otherworld
I Whispered to the moonlight
Watched it grow into something
Something other than the lie we'd been given
The one they told us from birth
That, 'This is how it works'
That you should know better
Or suffer the whip of the Master
And never amount to anything
Other than the life here after
In secret and undercover
I summoned forth the webs of laughter
The tears of truth, through eyes of innocence
From the hearts of our forefathers
Those that prayed for us
In the dirt, on this earth
Now covered in invisible wires
Made to bind us to the unknowable liar
But i will not obey, i will not succumb
To the crack of his cane
Never will i surrender
I have dreamed in The New Empire
In the gate of my vision
Bathed it in the last drops of ocean
Cleansed and created
Patiently awaiting your blessings
So come forth my love
Kiss my hands awake
Call this dream to you
For i need your serene smile
Your swollen breast
Your hungry belly
Your ache for something better
Something better than this
Where we are once again together
In perfect peace
Unbound and unfettered
Released from these chains
Free from false claims
To explore the impossible
And dream beyond our measure
Just for you i built this vision
Held it at my center, breathed it into being
Drew smoke from the distant land
Life from the Otherworld
I Whispered to the moonlight
Watched it grow into something
Something other than the lie we'd been given
The one they told us from birth
That, 'This is how it works'
That you should know better
Or suffer the whip of the Master
And never amount to anything
Other than the life here after
In secret and undercover
I summoned forth the webs of laughter
The tears of truth, through eyes of innocence
From the hearts of our forefathers
Those that prayed for us
In the dirt, on this earth
Now covered in invisible wires
Made to bind us to the unknowable liar
But i will not obey, i will not succumb
To the crack of his cane
Never will i surrender
I have dreamed in The New Empire
In the gate of my vision
Bathed it in the last drops of ocean
