Everland

by Justin Solonynka

on Playground (1999)

The omniscient lamppost has taken flight
Torture me in natural light
Of coal-burning furnaces and neon signs
If only you can take me there
Don't tell God, though He won't care
Ownership of my soul is solely mine
But still that voice inside me cries:

They're gonna throw me down
They're gonna take me down to Everland
The sky it needs no stars
When you wish upon the far, far Everland

Talk to my kitty cat and ask her what she sees
But I know that she won't talk back to me
She can't form the words, her brain is much too small
I wonder if she wonders if I wonder about my birth
'Cause after death I think I'd rather stay on earth
From the dust I came and to the dust I'll fall
But that still voice inside me calls:

They're gonna throw me down
They're gonna take me down to Everland
The sky it needs no stars
When you wish upon the far, far Everland

I have been looking for a particular song for years and can't find it.

I a child of the earth, from the dust i had my birth. I earth's beauty grew to stand, walk in peace upon the land.
