Alluvial Fans - Historic Preservation Lyrics

Had a thought that someone else did
Had a motive to migrate
Reached the inlet, found a vessel
Watched the East shrink beyond the bay

Across the waves of pure instinct
Had a dream to promulgate
Past the mast of Western presence
What a future must await!

Had a thought that someone else did
Maybe man created God
6, 000 years in gallic acid
6, 000 more and we'll be gone

Had belief that someone else did
Had a logic to escape
Forget the boundaries, there's no limits
To the destruction we create

On the short of transformation
Brought a seed to germinate
The soil knows it's true creation
Life is good but death is great!

Had a thought that someone else did
Maybe man created God
6, 000 years in gallic acid
6, 000 more and we'll be gone

Had belief like someone else did
Maybe Life created man
4 billion years in cosmic ashes
4 billion more and we'll be sand

All in all, the world keeps turning on
Learn to love, embrace your situation
Heavy haunt, the weight is coming on
Learn to fight and change your situation

Had a thought, a sudden realization
Saw the world expressed in formula
Camouflaged in cryptic connotations
There's a truth behind the old façade

Cool it off, elope in the elation
Cherish truth of the anima
There and not, in historic preservation
There's a world outside the things I want

A crystal ball
Behind the old façade
There's a world
Outside the things I want
