Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire,  
Then let me build a bridge, for I cannot fill the chasm,  
And let me set the battlements on fire.

Walking with the man called Sun  
I think my journey’s just begun  
Do you think he’ll mind?

But you know you need him more when he’s gone

Boiling my corpse in the blood of his children  
Praying for his god to prevail

To sleep with shelled children of the sixth dimension

Beckon the call, beckon the call  
Beckon the call, beckon the call

Keep a dream in your pocket and a song in your heart;  
Keep the lamp of your learnin’ burnin’ bright.  
Keep your eye on your horizon and a smile on your face  
As you travel down the highway of your life.
