The Cupboard
Northern Sun
Golden Mountains
I saw a man who was guided
by what someone else had said
hiding behind slogans
convincing but unjustified
he didn't have to think
it was done for him
when he was faced with the choice again
their plan seemed to work
they spoke clearly
/>callous harsh words
wrapped in a beautiful story
I saw him walking through the streets
with his friends in one line
from now on he would always be someone
refr.:
because they gave him a view
of a future and a purpose
and a hill to live on
and in his garden an easy chair
but near the golden mountains
he was never there
because the end and doubt
came before the party
he became vulnerable in his a seat
but wanted to live like a prince
besotted by all the luxury
and by quenching his thirst
he stood on a lonely height
on a pillar of power and fear
like a predator he guarded his catch
for they gave him a view
of a future and a purpose
and a hill to live on
br/>and an easy chair in his garden
but near the golden mountains
he was never there
because the end and doubt
came before the party < br/>because they gave him a view
of a future and a purpose
and a hill to live on
and an easy chair in his garden
but at the golden mountains
he was never there
because the end and the doubt
came before the feast
at the golden mountains he was never there
because the end and the doubts came before the celebration
