Clouds they don’t really look morbid
But they only look good with some sky
Two combined together to love the eye
To make you smile in your unshaded high ground

Too much of anything can smother you whole
Need to see the full parade
The chills of winter nights
And summer all the time

For a man who fights to fight for a cause
For a man who lies to lie for an innocent
For a preacher who preaches to preach what’s related
For a teacher who teaches to teach dreams never faded
For a clever man caught in his own obsession
To come down off his chemical mountain
To achieve reparation
To get some well earned compensation

For a free man to shout for more to be free
For a man who holds a gun to his head
Who wishes he was dead
To remove his dread
To speak for himself instead of indulging his fears
That fly around him
To swot them and finally be rid
Mutual ongoing, untamed, wild and free
Pictured now then and tomorrow
As it always will be
