Ghost Dance Lyrics - Harper Roy

Plastic money flexidream 

and comfort for the preacher 

keep the debtor out of prison 

borrowing the future 

how much future can he borrow 

how much past can he forget 

when now's become part of tomorrow 

just a flashy fast advertisement 

that talks about beginning 

at the end. 

You imagine 

you can change the world 

and you're right 

it's happening right here and now 

tonight tonight. 

Relief for hungry children 

is nothing but a symptom 

of accelerated ignorance 

unaware of how a world 

forcloses on invading circumstance 

and brings a new beginning 

all at once 

You imagine 

you can change the world 

and you're right 

it's happening right here and now 

tonight tonight. 

where ice and desert travels 

and the scale of justice levels 

and the house that silly jack built 

while forgetting ages cycling 

is crushed inside a moment he forgot 

there'll be a new beginning 

thanks a lot 

You imagine 

you can change the world 

and you're right 

it's happening right here and now 

tonight tonight.
