The hook is totally ripped from the title of an Explosions In The Sky album.
lyrics
Take me away, oh Flower Girl
far away from dates and sod.
Get me a place up in the hills
far away from hate and God.
A villa in some picturesque, Van Gogh culture.
A stand against the acceptance of greed and anger.
Let the fools behind the doors of perception stumble their words out.
Let their misconceptions guide them down the path of personal Hell
'cuz they can't see through the thorny veil of bigotry.
There is love to taste.
The Earth is not a cold, dead place.
And when the mountains weep to the tune the Summer brings,
the light will show it's just a vessal of confusion
matching our ambition for understanding
why we are, who we are
and those who are not.
Maybe the division is closer than we thought
but it's quite all right.
The solution seems right out of sight.
but there's something worth the chase
The Earth is not a cold, dead place.
Hope is a chemical reaction
caused by a cosmical faction
between the idealist heart
and the realist mind.
Perfection may be obselete
because it's so hard to reach,
but I don't give a damn
it's worth the fight
