the conqueror

You came and planted your flag
You gave a name to all this
You cleared away all the weeds inside
You built a solid fortress
The walls around it so high
You kept the door open

All the time, open wide

Sometimes i crawl inside
I know i cannot hide
To breathe the air you breathe
And now can never leave

You sow the seeds of virtue
You harvest starlight shining
You feed my soul and i am twice as high
This promise never falters
Forever’s more than science
Forever’s never long enough for me

It seems to pass me by

To follow you, my delight
To follow you, my delight
I know there’s wrong and there’s right
And it’s so wrong and it’s so right
It’s so wrong and it’s so right this time
This time, this time
