Rising Sun

On the street of villains
taken for a ride
you can have the devil as a guide

crippled by the boundaries,
programmed into guilt
'til your nervous system
starts to tilt.

And in the room of mirrors
you can see for miles
but everything that's there
is in disguise
every word you've uttered
and every thought you've had
is all inside your file,
the good and the bad.

But in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
universe at play inside your DNA
you're a billion years old today
oh the rising sun and the place
it's coming from
is inside of you and now
your payment's overdue

oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun.

On the avenue of sinners
I have been employed
working there 'til I was
near destroyed
I was almost a statistic
inside a doctor's case
when I heard the messenger
from inner space
he was sending me a signal
that so for long I had
ignored
but he held on to my
umbilical cord
until the ghost of memory
trapped in my body mind
came out of hiding to
become alive.

And in the rising sun
you can hear your life begin
and it's here and there nowhere
and everywhere
though it's atmosphere is rare
oh the rising sun and the place
that it's coming from
is inside of me and now
I feel it constantly

oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun, oh the rising sun.

But in the rising sun you can feel your life begin
universe at play inside your DNA
you're a billion years old today

oh the rising sun and the place
it's coming from
is inside of you and now your payment's overdue

oh the rising sun,
oh the rising sun,
oh the rising sun.

@eternal0star George Martin said "John Lennon was the soul of the Beatles, McCartney was the heart, Harrison was the spirit and Ringo was the drummer. However, the fab four will be the fab four forever. All four members were eqaully important if you ask me.

Lennon was the brains of the beatles. McCartney was the heart. But Harrison was the Soul.

And Ringo was the Ringo. lol.

[accordionreid]

This is one of the many great Harrisongs!

[moonsunbalance]

I strongly believe every person in the world needs to hear all the songs of George Harrison maybe especially this one and others similar to it that are especially deep and likely to really inspire young people (and old people for that matter, all people, any age or culture etc) to be better people and do the right thing and yet never lose hope he was so good and giving hope and also bringing awareness to important things i am inspired to go out and start a homeless shelter or something :)
