GRANITE AND GLASS

So it shimmers again, the world’s moving on
Lost the link between father and son
Forgotten the face that brought me here
Of line and wisdom, sweat and tear

You’ll find it beneath the kissing moon
Granite and Glass, Oak and Dune

Shoot with your mind, pocket the hands
Not for the children to understand
We’re on two levels of Granite and Glass
One in the future, one in the past

You’ll find it beneath the kissing moon
Granite and Glass, Oak and Dune

Take it to the end
Cut the vein
Lay me down,
Make it plain
Build it up into the ultimate game
Break it down and start again
Granite and Glass
Are they really the same?

Strive for the high ground of solemnity
But never the lows of fatuity
Haunt the face you would become
In harsh contrast to what you succumb

You’ll find it beneath the kissing moon
Granite and Glass, Oak and Dune
