One of my early songs written while Nixon was still president. A turbulent time that made the apocalypse seem like it would be an improvement.

My thoughts are not your thoughts nor are your ways my ways says the LORD. As the heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than yours. Isa: 55:9
"Many, O LORD my God, are your wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are towards us: they cannot be counted up in order to you: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered." Psalms:40:5 This is what my music is all about.

Lyrics
I'm hoping for the revelation To come and take away our nation I'm looking at the indications Hey I don't like the situation I just can't take the frustration Too many rules and regulations And if I don't get myself Away from this sinking ship And if I don't get myself Away you know I'm gonna flip I'm living in a dying city The sky is grey it's such a pity It's hard to find that death is pretty Everywhere I look I am disgusted Metal, cement, plastic all is rusted Got to get away it's too unreal for me I'm witnessing the crucifixion Stop it if you can dear Mr. Nixon This time it ain't just science fiction Hey I don't like the situation I just can't take the frustration Too many rules and regulations And if I don't get myself Away from this sinking ship And if I don't get myself Away you know I'm gonna flip I'm looking at a world insane All reason falling with the rain I can't imagine so much pain Seems we're lost and going down quite fast And I wonder how long will it last? Thank the day when everything is in the past I'm hoping for the revelation To come and take away our nation I'm looking at the indications
