Temporary Ground

Lyrics

On a floating lily island Movin' over slowly sideways Rest the temporary creatures Spendin' all of their days Waitin' for the floor to Buckle down below their belts Crashin' into yet another Driftin' continental shelf Movin' without motion Screamin' without sound Across an open ocean Lyin' there on temporary ground Movin' without motion Screamin' without sound Across an open ocean Lyin' there on temporary ground The old explorers had it easy They discovered nothin' new But returned on home with answers Of sad existence clues All the creatures have it hard now Nothin' but God is left to know And while He left us all here hangin' With an illusion of a home Movin' without motion Screamin' without sound Across an open ocean Lyin' there on temporary ground Movin' without motion Screamin' without sound Across an open ocean Lyin' there on temporary ground Movin' without motion Screamin' without sound Across an open ocean Lyin' there on temporary ground
