Solitary waves

they're gonna tell you freedom's coming
gonna tell you what you want to hear
they're gonna tell you the sky's full of angels
and they're all drawing near
make you deals in the dead of night
make you dream of a brave new light...

we are all like nervous children
on our first day of school
scared and innocent little lambs
clinging to the golden rule..
feeling stripped down to the bone,
waiting for our heroes to take us home

we are not solitary waves
crashing against the shore
we're the skyline, we're the water, we're the fishes, we're the trees
even stripped down to the bone, we're not alone
even stripped down to the bone
we're not alone

If a leaf falls from a tree
we've shed another skin
seasons change and days fly by
all part of the circle's spin
we must be what we're meant to be...
part of you
part of me...

we are not solitary waves
crashing against the shore
we're the skyline, we're the water, we're the fishes, we're the trees
even stripped down to the bone, we're not alone
even stripped down to the bone
we're not alone
