Horizontal Ascension - Transformation

Thematically, “Transformation” dovetails nicely from a later song, “Devious Moments”.
The message here, though, is that we can make a difference. If people were to come together, rather than letting ourselves be polarized by greed, envy, and most of all fear, we could transform not only our lives but the future.

evil intentions designed in a secret room
leaving only questions of impending doom
like lambs to the slaughter we’ve been taught to obey
the hope of our sons and daughters taken away
everything you dream
everything you see
just a mere reflection
of what is real
dark clouds rolling in the sky
billowing forward – kiss it all goodbye
showers the land and demands that we conform
under the tyrannical hand – the perfect storm
if knowledge is power and truth is the key
then this is the hour for you and me
awake from the nightmare – help every woman and man
escape from the web of the spider – save everyone we can
only the faith of the masses can save the nations
stop the confusion and follow our own aspirations
open our eyes to the great invasion
make our own transformation
