Your Name In Lights
Majic

It's a time of wonder and a time of fear
To beat your plowshare into a spear
The mood is right, the game is on
One wrong move and you know you're gone

Freeze the moment, rewind the scene
Cut your way out of the movie screen
You've seen 'em come, you've seen 'em go
Stars are falling on the world below

Counting sheep by remote control
Numbers sing in your electric soul
Signs and portents on the GPS
Betting the farm on a lucky guess

The stakes are high, the rules are set
There's no chance now to recall your bet
The wheel is spinning, the dice are cast
Duck and cover, here comes the blast

Twilight's gleaming glows so bright
Time to hold each other tight
Your Name In Lights
Sirens screaming in the night
Heroes paralyzed with fright
Your Name In Lights

Talk is cheap and you're out of dimes
Spinning excuses for Geneva crimes
Clocks are counting the appointed hour
To show the meaning of projected power

Links are sizzling with encrypted noise
As the moment comes to unwrap the toys
They're making a list and they're checking it twice
It doesn't really matter who's naughty or nice

The crowd goes wild as the balloon goes up
It's anyone's guess who's going to take the cup
The talking heads try to fake a smile
While their families land on a private isle

The preachers lecture in the crowded streets
As the homeboys dance to a muffled beat
Judgment blossoms in the evening sky
We never had a chance to even wonder why

Pompous kings of earthly might
Give the signal to ignite
Your Name In Lights
Soaring missiles in mid-flight
Streaking contrails set to write
Your Name In Lights

Demons cackle with delight
Angels march in glowing white
Your Name In Lights
Doesn't matter wrong or right
Got to win the final fight
Your Name In Lights

It's about a side of you that only people with a security clearance of TOP SECRET/MAJIC or above would know.

Well actually, "dedicated" in this case certainly doesn't mean it's about you.

Rather, it's the first song I could come up with in a semi-reasonable time frame -- and it's really kind of late for Springstock as it is.

But hey, at least there's a conspiracy angle to it. Green Light doesn't have one (it's more of a generic party song).

Think of it as a bonus dedication.

cool, thanks...

Springer...

Treaty Verification

Um, just in case I missed something, am I correct in believing that you do not have the power to destroy the world?

Silly question, I know.

Still, it's one of those questions that I would feel really dumb not asking if it turned out....

Nevermind.

Edit: LOL

Sorry, I've been up all night tinkering with this song and am thus pretty fried, and it just dawned on me how bizarre it is to dedicate a song of this type to someone.

Full moon fever, the usual madness and sleep deprivation take their toll.

Anyway, if you think of it from the "Little Drummer Boy" perspective, that would be far more accurate than thinking I'm being sarcastic.

Although I am known for being sarcastic, even when I'm not trying.

Hmm. You haven't been to Geneva recently, have you?
