Folly of the Chase

Lonely heart

Do not be afraid

Love is the first

Love is the last

Love is all that will light the way....

Or so they say... is it true?

Human mind....

Human folly.... 

Human come,
Human go,
Humans born,
Humans die,
Humans will throw away
Humans will destroy what they should protect... 

Protect the sacred... 

Will anyone protect the sacred anymore?
Change will come
Change has arrived
Will we transform
Humankind?
Humans be kind?
You look for the light
There is plenty to be found
But there are so many shadows
Shadows
Shadows
What will chase away those shadows?
Duality
Good?
Bad?
Illusion?
Be the exception
Not the rule
Who has courage to follow through?
Who has the courage to follow through?
She screams at the court....
Who has courage?
Silence arrives....
No one makes a move...
A chess piece falls to the side...
Echo...
Clatter...
Click....
Follow through on the heart?
Follow through from the soul?
Show me your soul!
Do you have none?
Did your soul run away?
Did you fall?
Was there a silent gun?
Point
Point
Point
Point your fingers in
Which direction?
Does no one have integrity?
Aclaim!
Resolve!
Claim your soul!
Claim your birthright!
If no one can follow through....
What will the human race do?
Echo
The echo
Echo of the drama
Change comes from within
Chance comes from outside
Change will always prevail
Which side are you on?
How will the story end?
Which life is real anyways?
What happens abroad
Happens on the little levels
To save the world
Is to save yourself
To save yourself
Is to save the world
Say, do you think it's true?
Really all that matters at the end of the day
Is what your soul will become
Love is the first
Love is the last
We come here
We return there
Was it all an illusion anyways?
Oneness
Of the many
So above
So below
So below
So above
Repeat after me....
Does no one have courage anymore?
Run so run why don't you just run!
End the torment
She said
End it now
Just run
Because if love is true,
Then love must prevail
If love does not prevail
Then it was never true
So just run why don't you?
It is what you wanted to do?
Cut, cut, cut me away...
No one can explain the fool's actions...
There are two kinds of fools...
The fool that knows a sad ending
And the fool who achieves what they say cannot be done...
She knows which fool she is
and somehow she will prevail....
She wasn't so sure about the other...
Love is the first
Love is the last
But what of the in between? 

Love! 

It is true, it is true

We know this, we know this...

Love is the first

Love is the last

It is in between that one finds concerning.....

The human condition...

Yet as the drama unfolds....
Repeat
Repeat
Repeat
After me
Repeat
Repeat

Frustration prevails

The heart is not frozen

Tries to remain open

As numbness sets in...

The human drama;

Reminiscent of childhood chess games

Grandfather clock chimes:

the time! the time!

Which way, which way?

No one knows, or so they say...

... and no one moves...

Tick tick

Says the clock

.... and someone sighs from behind the room...

The speaker...

and what can we do when they twist their words?

They point fingers at the innocent!
...and watch the speaker run away....
Who is the speaker anyways?
Is there more then one?
The exchange
The exchange
Speaker speaks 

Battle your fears!

The sage pipes in....

No battle, let go, be the observer...

Don't empower the drama...
But?

They will cry!

They will cry!

Battle your fears!

Is it true, that love will lead the way?

Are you a hypocrite?

We are all one
To one degree or another

But those with stronger integrity will rise to save the day....
Yes?
Yes?
Yes?
Repeat after me...
Repeat
Repeat
How do we free ourselves from these mechanisms?
How do we free ourselves from these cycles?
How do we free ourselves?

Hypocritical?
Stand up!
Are you a hypocrite?
Tell me true

So easy to point fingers,
He wants to point fingers
She wants to point fingers
Everyone wants to point fingers
and it leads to no where...
As the human drama unfolds
On an earth that is dying
They shut their ears
As they shut their eyes
Those who face the tides
They cry!
They cry!
Courage to face the oncoming tides!
While the others hide their heads in the sands...
Awake!
Awake!
Repeat after me!
Repeat
Repeat
Repeat
Awake!
Awake!
Awake!

Who knows, who knows, who knows!
How will the game end?

... as the human drama unfolds....
Will the phoenix rise from her ashes?

So pitter patter...

She'll do what she must, be it alone or together...

...a wish is made.....

I cannot control the outcome,

She says to the speaker....

...but I can guide the canoe through the oncoming waves....

... The waves, they make me dizzy as they crash, they crash, they crash....

Outside of my control... Is she really marooned?

Which way will he move his chess piece next?

Does he even care?

Illusions or delusions?

Setting sun...

They say if it is real

Love is strong?

What will prevail?

They try and they try...

So what will this tale that is spun...

.... spun...

... spun....

Around and around like a turvey top....

Reveal... reveal ... reveal....

Release ... release ... release...

I am no hypocrite, so I must be careful with my words....

She says to the speaker who dances from one foot to the next....

He never knows if he is coming or going...

His fears hold him hostage...

His actions are a reaction to his fears

Become her fears manifest....
Sigh
Sigh
Sigh

She sighs for she cannot control the tides
Tides
Tides
Tides
Carry on you must
Carry on he must
Carry on she must
Carry on we must
and carry on she will...

The waves crash against the shoreline....

Stars dance in dizzying regalia...
Regalia
Regalia
Spinning
Dancing
Dizzying heights
Move!
It's your move!
She throws the chess piece across the room!
Repeat
Repeat
Repeat after me....

If there's any justice in this world
The innocent would no longer be hung
With the false claims of others, suffocated...
Suffocating...
Suffocating...
Everyone needs love....
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe deep.... 

Follow the light...

So what will be revealed?

Rebel
Rebel
Rebel
Rebel of the Soul
The question
Question
Question
Repeat after me
What will be revealed?

Reveal when the sun chases down the moon?

Will they collide in the sky?

Eclipse...

The moon hides her sorrow....

Fade away or come back, like the phoenix rising?

Stride forward, she will never give up... .

The dark night of the moon will pass....

The light will be felt

Reverberating through time,

Reverberating through space,

Backwards and forwards,

It is all right now...
Is it alright now?
Will they dance?
Will they dance?
They will dance.....
Reverberating .....

Hurray hurray!
Soul's prevail?
Will the soul arrive to save the day?
Can the soul save the day?
Which way?
Which way?
What are you on about anyways?
So said the speaker
Which speaker
Who knows.... 

How will we save the day?

The future is always uncertain

But we can guide the ship true....

How will we save the day?
Will hearts be true?
