Lotus Man

The lotus flower rises from the mud, sans stains. Laughing in the face of miracle, it returns to murky water every night. Light shines, and it blooms again breaking the day. After a November of hard truth, all dig the rebirth.
lyrics
Keep your eyes on the lotus man
He’s been traveling hard for days
But keep your hands from the wildflower
He’s busy making plans

Keep your eyes on the lotus man
The keeper’s left him bare and dazed
He’ll breathe just before the hour
Seize the last drops of sand

Step up breathe now
He will show you how
With time served for interfering
Go right now
Sing right now, space is clearing
He knows the plan that’s nearing
Go right now

Lotus man sleeps for days
And he follows no passion
Lotus man owns no place
Seeks no reaction
But when you step up to the water
He’ll carry you away

Step up breathe now
He will show you how
Don’t speak of conflagration
Go right now
Sing right now, space is clearing
He knows the plan that’s nearing
Go right now

Keep your eyes on the lotus man
He’s been traveling hard for days
But keep your hands from the wildflower
He can’t erase the pain
