Nothing left to bet,
Society in debt.
Violence for no cause,
Spirits fighting wars.
Wish that I could see,
Wish that I could be free.
Wish that I could know,
How everything goes.
Can't begin to say,
Describe what I perceive.
There's one thing that I need.
I need a daydream where the ripples in the sea,
Spread for miles and miles without spreading no disease.
Don't plague the earth with war,
No hunger any more.
There's still much to see,
We could all be free.
Just see through foggy lies,
From men in shirts and ties.
Wish that I could see,
Wish that I could be free.
Wish that I could know,
How everything goes.
Can't begin to say,
Describe what I perceive.
There's one thing that I need.
I need a daydream where the ripples in the sea,
Spread for miles and miles without spreading no disease.
Don't plague the earth with war,
No hunger any more.
Silence is eroding away,
Like the cliffs that stop the sea from flooding all the bay.
Silence is eroding away.
