the changes - twilight of the west lyrics

[instrumental intro]

and i watched with wide_eyed wonder, the buddha’s stoic stare
as he gazes out serenely, without spirit left to care
and the gold_haired thin ascetic’s head is buried in the sand
of the mystic, sterile desert, seeks to be one with the land

and your women feel equal to the men who fill their lives
disdain the age_old titles of “motherhood” and “wife”
and their mild_mannered husbands grant their anarchistic flight
by the weak_willed neuter feelings of their limp_wrist corporate lives

and your churches all are classrooms of humanistic thought
who preach of economics and salvation which is bought
and they measure good in dollars, no longer martyr’s blood
and promise pie not of the sky, but lying in the mud

[chorus]
and i watch the west now dying
it’s twilight time has come
as it’s melody plays sadly
of that which has become
of that which has become

and the politician tells you
that there’s nothing left for him
“peace on, good will towards man” as he grooms his doomed career
and opponents you thought vanquished have come to take their fill
as they hover on the sidelines preparing for the k!ll
and your well_fed soldiers stand in line amid the morning rain
but the pulse_beat of their fathers stretched so thin now through their veins
and the ancient vowed to valor lies shrouded in the mist
of the years of tranquil living that have rubbed them of the test

and iconoclastic artists with little left to say
sp_wn theirs works of chaos with such thought_provoking names
and the patrons of pretension give unmitigated praise
as they join the faker’s chorus for fear of losing face

[chorus]
and i watch the west now dying
it’s twilight time has come
as it’s melody plays sadly
of that which has become
of that which has become

and the money_hungry merchant descends to greater greed
as he tries to take advantage of conditions he helped breed
and the rich are dressing ragged as the poor put on their best
as they all don masks of falsehood as they live their lives in jest

and the parents treat their parents as though expensive toys
provided for dull moments, a diversion to employ
and professors set the standards, “equality” nothing less
as they level on their students, making sure that none is best
and the young all shake their fists as the old pollute the land
as they fill themselves with poisons with the other hand
and they all sing praise to progress and the new day that will dawn
as they dance to deathly dervish of the rise delirium

[chorus]
and i watch the west now dying
it’s twilight time has come
as it’s melody plays sadly
of that which has become
of that which has become

[instrumental outro]
