One part lullaby, two parts fear
Another animal mixing with the atmosphere
It takes forever to learn to pretend
Nature is the enemy, weather is not your friend

Who can be trusted?
With perfect weather inside
Look for magic in the daily routine
It's all it takes to survive

Leaving heaven below
Go wherever the angels follow

I'm watching my body and mind divide
Why live for a future that never arrives on time?

I can't be trusted, I'm dust in the wind
I let he weather decide where my day begins
I'm not a rebel of the natural one
I'm in love with the chemical
Following the setting sun

Lost my patience
All that it takes to survive
Watching my mind and my body divide
Why live for a future that never arrives on time?

Leaving heaven below
Go wherever the angels follow

One Part Lullaby, Two parts fear
Another animal, mixing with the atmosphere
One part lullaby, two parts fear

I'm watching my body and mind divide
Why live for a future that never arrives on time?

Thankfully, it's not democratic, it's eclectic - and Bill is the one who picks the raisins. Do you really only want to hear the tracks with the highest ratings? Then you might as well go back to mainstream commercial stations, and enjoy the "greatest hits of the 60s, 70s, and 80s". BTW, I like this song a lot (and the others on the album), and I gave it a 10 :) Folk Explosion rules!

STOP THE MADNESS! This makes my sensibility implode. Anything under a 5 rating ought to be ousted. This is, after all, truly democratic radio.

Yes, one part lullaby indeed. Other partS are fairly OK, though.

Outstanding tune from one of the best albums of the Electronica genre. Regarding the distortion, if there is any, it is balanced well with the clarity of the bells--a solid effect heard in albums like Dark Side of the Moon and Abbey Road (transition between I Want You and Here Comes the Sun).

I like this song. The drums behind the simple harmonies, I think, make for a very effective song. :)

I agree with Rob. The background noise made me think I had a hardware problem. The distortion, in my opinion, only detracts from a fairly weak tune. :(
