lyrics

3 2 1 and Now
September 23, 1991

welcome to the darkness friend
welcome to this world of wonder
come and see the fallen angel crying on the ground
welcome friend to some hot in the shade years
know that you have brought this on
know that greed started the burning
oh so long ago
know this as the world's weakness
destined some say to go to sand
where all her people fight for water
water once fresh at hand for all -
know well the angel's name is indolence
that the angel's face matches each of the dead
and that the ground burns on...
it's to the burning ground we fall
so say good-bye...
say good-bye to your hopes my friend
they lie with the rest on the desert sand
say good-bye to this troubled land
for in death it is said that peace regains
for in the death of this world of wonder
- how I laugh at this turn of phrase -
we find we were the fools
treading hot on the tracks of avarice
hot like the fool
the angel
we fall
to find drifting sand harder than stone
