lyrics
“Avalon”
Chorus I
Avalon… Avalon…
Verse I
Lately I’ve been thinking about you and me –
And how twisted life’s become in our society.
Where the man who lends a hand runs the risk of being branded –
As a faker… risk taker… a nightly newsmaker.
The disturbing, wasted psyches with their lawyers, guns, and Nikes –
Are just so many herds of swine.
In godless times, the wicked shine –
The ‘you-get-yours’ and ‘I’ll-get-mines’ –
Are robbing all our children’s minds.
Chorus II
Avalon… Avalon…
Avalon… Avalon…
Verse II
As the Earth and Moon keep turning, little ones keep learning –
All the hatred, fear, and prejudice they’re taught.
We forever lost the feeling of this nation truly healing –
Bullets tore through the heart of Kennedy’s Camelot.
The End of Paradise was seen when Arthur’s barge with his three queens
Sailed forth – disappearing in the dawn.
But we may yet grasp one last chance to circumvent this circumstance –
And reinvent our innocence in Avalon.
Chorus III
Avalon… Avalon…
Avalon… Avalon…
Remove these shackles – set us free –
From this dark-age technocracy –
Faith brings us healing –
When love keeps revealing her song –
Back to the Island of Avalon.
Chorus II
Avalon… Avalon…
Avalon… Avalon…
