Up Above I Am Down Below

Sitting beneath a half moon rising
In the eastern sky
The morning was good floating down the river
as rods slipped by
We passed the time throughout the midday
never stopping to wonder why
And here I am in the evening
just trying to clear my mind

My existence is one moment
at peace with the land
I can tell my time is coming
I can feel it again
I remember living this feeling
In a time before then
Cruising down the side of a mountain
In a minivan

Up ahead in the horizon
the sky is tinted green
I can feel that pressure rising
dropping twenty degrees
Then the raindrops start falling
so much I can't see
But now the trees they have stopped bending
and I am set free
