Your Big Chance ~~~ You ride the wind through space and time to search within subconscious mind You catch a wave from distant source within your cave receive its' force You fire a rocket of pondering thought from the depths of your knowledge before it's forgot ~ Your rocket explodes to magnificent sparks with a beacon of light alive in the dark Its' arrow streaks true and slices within to your naked soul bourn high on the wind Your big chance ... now or never ~ A deathly quiet envelopes the earth surrounds your essence ... til a pin can be heard You become the beacon ... your chance is now So tell the world what you've found ~ if you can put it in words ~ and make it quick they haven't got all day ~~~ |
