My Nation (feat. Jaime Neely)

from Living & Laughing: The Mind's Eye In Passing by frequentscenes

about

An unrestricted ruckus with boundaries long unknown, the lands we tread inside our heads are where our rocks are grown. I think this calls for a celebration.

lyrics

Well here we go again it's starting over, and I can't wait at all.
A sun-lit sea-star constellation is rearranging to the night sky's form.
And I didn't take it for much of anything but a window to my imagination.
The nation that I rule.
It's all around, it's everywhere.

Well here it comes again it's taking over. The feeling's all around.
It's devil's dust and we're trading it in for a beat-up ride that's got less miles.
And I didn't take it for much of anything but a sidebar observation.
My nation.
Your patience is a virtue.

And in my wasted conversation you walked in, and threw a side-long glance across me.
The hesitation lasted only seconds then we all got up to dance like no one had a worry on their mind.

I'm looking through you.

And I wouldn't take that for much of anything. But a window…

My nation. The nation that I rule.

And in my wasted conversation you walked in, and threw a side-long glance across me.
The hesitation lasted only seconds then we all got up to dance like no one had a worry on their mind.

I’ll be there. You can find me there. My nation.

I would not waste away my soul without a song. It’s my nation. So congregation, sing along.

I would not waste away my soul without a song. It’s my nation. A celebration. So sing on.
