"Power And Glory - The Situation"


	I was visited by The Power and The Glory
	I was visited by a majestic hymn
	Great bolts of lightning lightning up the sky
	electricity flowing through my veins

	I was captured by a larger moment
	I was seized by divinity's hot breath
	Gorged like a lion on experience
	powerful from life

	(I wanted all of it, all of it, all of it) All of it
	(not just some of it, all of it, all of it) All of it

	I saw a man turn into a bird
	I saw a bird turn into a tiger
	I saw a man hang from a cliff by the tips of his toes
	in the jungles of the Amazon

	I saw a man put a red hot needle through his eye
	turn into a crow and fly through the trees
	Swallows hot coals and breathe out flames
	and I wanted this to happen to me

	(I wanted all of it, all of it, all of it) All of it
	(All of it, all of it, all of it) Not some of it

	We saw the moon vanish into his pocket
	we saw the stars disappear from sight
	We saw him walk across water into the sun
	while bathed in eternal light

	We spewed out questions waiting for answers
	creating legends, religions and myths
	Books, stories, movies and plays
	all trying to explain this

	(I wanted all of it, oh, all of it) All of it
	(All of it, oh, all of it) Not some of it

	I saw a great man turn into a little child
	the cancer reduced him to dust
	His voice growing weak as he fought for his life
	with a bravery few men know

	I saw isotopes introduced into his lungs
	trying to stop the cancerous spread
	And it made me think of Leda and The Swan
	and gold being made from lead

	The same power that burned Hiroshima
	causing three legged babies and death
	Shrunk to the size of a nickel
	to help him regain his breath

	And I was struck by The Power and The Glory
	I was visited by a majestic Him
	Great bolts of lightning lighting up the sky
	as the radiation flowed through him

	(I wanted all of it, not just some of it, all of it) He wanted all of it
	(All of it, all of it, all of it) He wanted all of it, not some of it
