Look Beyond And See The Past

© 2009 Mark Cote

(chorus) is it all about me, is it all about you
                when the world is gone, what will you do
                is it all about greed, is it all about cost
                when your day has come, who really has lost

1. when, all the waters, have lost their blue....
    a witches brew
    when, all the air, is poisoned too...
    you can't see through

2. Now, plastic sun, lights your day....
    every day
    drink, beakered water, made in a tray...
    it's a holiday

(bridge) when we can look beyond, and see the past
                neon dreams, they never last
                a sweetened world, is not so sweet
                as nature crumbles, at your feet
(chorus)

3. skies, clouded over, look above....
    a metal dove
    hate, in the name of, what you believe...
    now we grieve

4. a bloom, made in anger, ends it all...
    a frozen fall
    cold, lonely rock, floats in space...
    a symbol of
    what once was
(bridge)
(chorus)
