Skylight Motion Picture - Errant Son

by the hand of an errant son
never thought of another one
but the scope has a dented glass
mixing the present with the past
i don’t feel what i used to feel
hard to know what is real
in the land of the wasted
where we scar, but we never heal
covered up so heavily dressed
digging through the layers would be a mess
copies of us to populate our towns
never full, but wanting less

oh
fire
come down
from the mountain
can we ever evolve

not a sign of a whisper lends (hello, hello)
comfort to a fool entrenched (i know, i know)
but if a nail could be so strong (it’s true, i see you)
why all the dance and song (you know, i know you)
parallel with the silent dream (all in a painting)
other than a grand orchestra unseen (i will be waiting)
in the land of the wasted (will you be hasty)
where we explore in the darker themes (will you be angry)
all adore, elevate this sale (wonder is easy)
one never would have lost the trail (do you believe me)
fall on the sword of a warrior (hello, hello)
no penance for the ones who fail

oh
fire
come down
from the mountain
can we ever evolve

give it up, give it up
had enough, had enough
all in a disarray (ooh)
let it up, let it up
it was a bluff, it was a bluff
put the power on display
