lyrics

at my house i've got no shackles,
you can come and look if you want to,
through the halls you'll see the mantle,
that's where the light shines dim all around you.

and the streets are paved with gold,
and if someone asks you,
you can call my name.

you are just a thought that someone,
somewhere, somehow feels you should be here,
and it's so for real to touch,
to smell, to feel to know that you are here

and the streets are paved with gold,
and if someone asks you,
you can call my name,
you can call my name,
i hear you calling my name.

all right now, yeah.

by the time they come through singing,
the bells from the schools of wars will be ringing,
more confusion, blood transfusions,
the news today will be the movies for tomorrow.

and the waters turn to blood,
and if you don't think so,
go turn on your tub,
and if it's mixed with mud,
you see it turn to grey,
and you can call my name,
i hear you calling my name.
