Ian Anderson - Skating Away on the Thin Ice of the New Day lyrics
Meanwhile back in the year one, When you belonged to no one, You didn't stand a chance, son, If your pants were undone. 'Cause you were bred, for humanity And sold to society One day you'll wake up, in the present day A million generations removed from expectations Of being who you really want to be. Skating away, skating away, skating away, On the thin ice of the new day So as you push off from the shore, Won't you turn your head once more And make your peace with everyone. For those who choose to stay Will live just one more day, To do the things they should've done. And as you cross the wilderness, Spinning in your emptiness If you have to, pray. Looking for a sign, that the universal minds Has written you into the passion play. Skating away, skating away, skating away On the thin ice of the new day And as you cross the circle line, Well the ice wall creaks behind You're a rabbit on the run. And the silver splinters fly In the corner of your eye, Shining in the setting sun. Well do you ever get the feeling That the story's too damn real And in the present tense. Or that everbody's on the stage And it seems like you're the only Person sitting in the audience Skating away, skating away, skating away On the thin ice of the new day Skating away, skating away, skating away |
