Upon retreat back into the womb of their mother she finds that they are not alone.
lyrics
don't you touch that, he exclaimed
and she jumped back, stood straight and met his gaze
he said, it's just another way for them to get you.
he turned it off and moved a clock
exposed a tunnel carved in solid rock.
he took her hand and had her walk
downstairs for minutes in the dark.
in the underground
look at what i've found
i'm not the only man around.
until another world has pity
we've built the perfect city.
we're going down
to the underground.
she couldn't take it all this craziness was going to her head
she couldn't speak because she had no words to say.
she couldn't stand she felt that she'd been taken down beyond the dead
she couldn't hold herself together, no not after this day.
up top the helicopters hovered herding men like cattle
up top the evil doers did men in in evil battles.
if you go with me, then i believe
you know it's comin' in the same way that i do.
if you go with me, i know you see
the final book of the good book's comin' true.
we'll make it here for a thousand years.
