letra de turn around - eric zaccar

music & performance by mike boldt

moses now rides the subway train;
a beaten man, can’t bear the pain
of knowing that in this life, he
is not the king he used to be;
and he can’t break apart the sea;
and he can’t set his people free! give up!! give up!!

things can’t remain the same forever;
have to start a new game, or never
get that little old head together;
nothing’s here to stay but the stars and the sky;
what happened to you and i?
turn around and you are two;
turn around and you are four;
turn around and you are all grown up, walking out my front door;
turn around and you are here;
turn around and you’ve moved on;
turn around and wonder where the dreams of yesterday have gone!

ex-warlord’s doing roof repair;
and bowing to wimps who don’t care
that he once ruled the streets, by night;
and he had never lost the fight;
how could they have shut off the light?
what made them take his divine right away, today?

things can’t remain the same forever;
you were leading the game, now never
can you put it all back together;
everything passed away with a blink of your eye;
how could you let it go bye?

turn around and you are four;
turn around and you are eight;
turn around and wish you could go back, and alter your fate;
turn around and it is now;
turn around and now was then;
turn around and find you’re all alone, dreaming you’re home again!
go to sleep for a hundred years
and waken to your darkest fears;
as you stroll down the empty street;
peel melted flesh off the concrete;
see the red glow, feel intense heat;
take the shame! you’re to blame!
you saw it coming down, but you didn’t make them stop!

cause you thought we would last forever;
you slept right through the blast, now never
can you put it all back together:
once complex world is now but a green dot midst the sky;
you never did say goodbye;
and now you can only cry!

turn around and you are eight;
turn around and you are nine;
turn around and all you’ve known is gone, you’re first and last in line!
turn around and you are pink;
turn around and you are gray;
turn around and you’re a memory, quickly fading away!
