Array ( [sid] => 53208 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => When the Earth Stands Still [time] => 2004-06-22 16:44:57 [hometext] => Sometimes evil must be conquered by another type of evil [bodytext] =>
Sometimes evil must be conquered by another type of evil
Only it can understand, only it knows the Achilles heel
Armed with death, Destruction looms on the horizon
Fight fire with fire, pick up the sword and vanquish

The next world waits silently, ear to the wind
Creation waits in Faith to wave her wand
The Word waits to speak the word from sword
Masters of the game play their last card

The Earth, it spins perilously on its axis
A dredel top left to wind down the ages
It wobbles, and a hand reaches down to spin it
A great heave in the other direction, towards eternity

The Message is deaf to ears of stone, many are lost
Their spirits must find their Way instead
But if you rest in stillness and in faith, in Life will you find the Way
No death, only joy and laughter awaits this faith in love

When the earth stands still, be also still and Know
Fear will get you nowhere, keep faith in love and live
Like a wildfire clearing the brush for new growth,
Destruction is merely a pathway for Creation
