Zephyr Songtext
von Woolgather

May I have a word with you, Lord?
Our homes have been taken, and burned,
And the ashes are falling like snow.

I followed a yellow-brick road;
Took me every direction, but home.
What we are — what we were — is no more.

So we went for the sky; said goodbye to the world.
With absolutely no desire to return.

May I have a word with you, world?
Humanity, shaken and stirred,
By the violent and the absurd.


I cannot believe my own eyes;
Watching fascism spread like a wildfire.
I present the American empire.

So we went for the sky, said goodbye to the world.
With absolutely no sense of order.

So we went for the sky —
Said ten-billion goodbyes.
With our heads in the clouds,
Got it all figured out.

So we wandered
So much farther than the map could even picture.
And they′ll follow —
They'll be armed with their slogans, and their bullets.
