A wave toward the clearing the sky



All this time we're talking and sharing our rational view

A billion other voices are spreading other news

All this time we're living and trying to understand

Why a billion other choices are making their demands



Talk of a peaceable kingdom

Talk of a time without fear

The ones we wish would listen

Are never going to hear



Justice against the hanged man

Knight of Wands against the hour

Swords against the kingdom

Time against the tower



All this time we're shuffling and laying out all our cards

While a billion other dealers are slipping past our guards

All this time we're hoping and praying we all might learn

While a billion other teachers are teaching them how to burn



Dream of a peaceable kingdom

Dream of a time without war

The ones we wish would hear us

Have heard it all before



A wave toward the clearing sky

A wave toward the clearing sky



The hermit against the lovers

Or the devil against the fool

Swords against the kingdom

The wheel against the rules



All this time we're burning like bonfires in the dark

A billion other blazes are shooting off their sparks

Every spark a drifting ember of desire

To fall upon the earth and spark another fire



A homeward angel on the fly

A wave toward the clearing sky
