A Garden In The Sunshine

You wanna make some rules and you gotta make 'em fast

'Cause it feels like you're little worlds are falling all around you, now

You try tie us down to you're straight and narrow path

Try keep us hidden from the devil on your shoulder, now

You can't keep control of you're lives by yourselves

So everyone must stay in line and keep a little order

 

I'm waiting for the garden in the sunshine

Letting all my feelings out to play

And the meaning of life is forever getting clearer

 and there's no need to fear the

 evil hidden in ourselves

 

Lie and offend us and censor our minds

If it feels like you're little minds will grow a little stronger, now

But innocence and ignorance are not the same to me

For ignorance won't let us see that innocence of purity

Lying deep inside of me, my truth alone will set me free

From chains of mediocrity, surrounding your simplicity

 

I'm waiting for the garden in the sunshine

Letting out what I was meant to be

And the meaning of life is forever getting finer

 and I can't seem to find the

 evil hiding in myself

 

Well take a look around us and you'll see where the trouble is

Extending from your little worlds, the devil on you're shoulder

For you need to control if you want to be free

So all around you're little worlds "they'll keep a little order now!!!"

 

While I'm waiting for the garden in the sunshine

Giving up my innocence for you

And the meaning of life is forever getting stronger and I can't seem to find the evil

hidden in ourselves

Yes I'm waiting for the garden in the sunshine

Waiting for all of us to play

And the meaning of life has become so much clearer that we know there's no evil

hiding in ourselves

Commentary

This one deals with the idea of 'freedom from' and 'freedom to'. You probably guess that I lean towards freedom to. This is just my belief in the purity of the human spirit as opposed to the belief in original sin. I also have a hard time with the notion of a fixed and static "nirvana" or "heaven" and the path to enlightenment is "forever" getting clearer. The little worlds belong to those that may never see a better way for themselves that isn't cast in concrete by some one else. To learn is to believe in everything and nothing.
