Prime Mover Lyrics

Basic elemental
Instinct to survive
Stirs the higher passions
Thrill to be aliveAlternating currents
In a tidewater surge
Rational resistance
To an unwise urge
Anything can happenFrom the point of conception
To the moment of truth
At the point of surrender
To the burden of proofFrom the point of ignition
To the final drive
The point of the journey
Is not to arrive
Anything can happenBasic temperamental
Filters on our eyes
Alter our perceptions
Lenses polarizeAlternating currents

Force a show of hands
Rational responses
Force a change of plans
Anything can happenFrom a point on the compass
To magnetic north
The point of the needle
Moving back and forthFrom the point of entry
Until the candle is burned
The point of departure
Is not to return
Anything can happenI set the wheels in motion
Turn up all the machines
Activate the programs
And run behind the sceneI set the clouds in motion
Turn up light and sound
Activate the window
And watch the world go roundAnything can happen
