Foy Vance - Republic of Eden lyrics

[Verse 1] Some people say they know it For others it's belief Say they'd rather know than know it's make believe For those that have outgrown it Those that up and leave Know you can't control what's clearly mystery [Chrous] Well I've longed to start the fires So while I'm still breathing There's a revolution in the republic of Eden [Verse 2] Consider the lion Lying on the plane Watch His eyes as he surveys the pridе and wildebeest remains Though he may not show Hе's the king of his domain And woe betide the lion that tries to challenge his reign [Chorus] Well he owes and he owns nothing He's standing still, now breathing In his eyes the revolution in the republic of Eden [Verse 3] And those exploring planets Report no signs of God By the whirling firmament out the window of the fuselage And this space between us Yet there's no us or them Whether we were born of a bang of the aftermath of requiem [Chrous] I am a raging fire I am standing still now breathing Yes I am the revolution in the republic of Eden We owe and we own nothing We're standing still now breathing Yes we are the revolution in the republic of Eden
