Devin Townsend - Genesis

Surrender it all receive this love
Receive this love

If you're saying in your mind
"You’re better off dead"
Well, before the madness comes
To claim your name
A million years would go by
(Tell us a story)
What could I say? What should I say?
It took all of my words and my fantasy worlds
And at the heart of it all, there was nothing
How they meet their maker is
Their right while they're alive
It's beautiful (It’s beautiful)

Let there be light let there be moon
Let there be stars and let there be you
Let there be monsters, let there be pain
Let us begin to live again
From the top to the bottom genesis

I, beyond the universe i, beyond the mind

All the world is in this together
Feel no fear, we're fearless forever
So why can't we just sail away?
Because you're so in love with
This island of the mind
(So in love with this island of the mind)
Know this here island is home
You've got to get on your feet again
(Genesis) get on your feet again
But without your "self"
What'll become of you?

(Take your leave now, shut up, shut up) you
(Take your leave now, shut up, shut up)
Please don't take me from my youth
(Take your leave now, shut up, shut up
Shut up)

When we're apart, we fall
Together, we feed the world

So let there be light let there be moon
Let there be stars, and let there be you
Let there be monsters, let there be pain
Let us begin to feel again
From the top to the bottom genesis
