Killing Joke Lyrics

Album: Democracy

Aeon Lyrics

Denominations of a thousand 

Different deities 

Congregations, endless carnivals of gaiety 

Why should i fear? why should i cling on to anything? 

it's not how long long i live but how beautiful it is 

And i saw crying. there was turmoil in the marketplace 

I saw economies perpetuate the next arms race 

And i felt helpless and there was nothing i could say 

And then i noticed there's a change 

That's coming over me 

Tapping into the aeon 

Balance of the eco-system, 

Self-reliance beckons us 

Windmills and waterfalls, strawberries and lily ponds 

When skyscrapers no longer block the sun's meridian 

When we wake up to the whisper of the voice 

Tapping into the aeon
