Lyrics Hanging Ten - Icicle

HANGING TEN

I took a journey to discover the truth
I found some answers and I found some proof
I live my life inside a dreamlike trance
I hear the music and I have to dance
I'm alive, I'm alive

I've studied money, studied history
I know where we're headed is no mystery
The sun, the moon, the rippling wind
My spirit flows throughout the now and then
All aglow, all aglow

Go through the motions, there's no other way
Ignore the decadence, forget the decay
I had a thought that taught me, taught me to transcend
Inside a wave I thought that would never end
Hanging ten, hanging ten

The gift of life of has certain conditions
Neglecting talent is the ultimate sin
Feels like we are following the Roman path
Can't control the world without some wrath
Empire, Empire

I've found some answers in the Austrian school
And non-believers in the class that rules
So much frustration when you know what works
Instead of looting and the corporate perks
We could thrive, we could thrive

Go through the motions, there's no other way
Ignore the decadence, forget the decay
I had a thought that taught me, taught me to transcend
Inside a wave I thought that would never end

Because it is a battle for your heart and mind
Awake your soul and who knows what you will find
The tree of liberty we must all revive
Every now and then if we're to survive

Go through the motions, there's no other way
Ignore the decadence, forget the decay
I had a thought that taught me, taught me to transcend
Inside a wave I thought that would never end

Because it is a battle for your heart and mind
Awake your soul and who knows what you will find
The tree of liberty we must all revive
Every now and then if we're to survive
