words of the day: Neil Peart

I've got twelve disciples and a Buddha smile
Garden of Allah, Viking Valhalla
A miracle once in a while

I've got a pantheon of animals in a pagan soul
Vishnu and Gaia, Aztec and Maya
Dance around my totem pole
Totem pole

I believe in what I see
I believe in what I hear
I believe that what I'm feeling
Changes how the world appears


Lunatics and monsters underneath my bed
Media messiahs preying on my fears
(Ohh ohh)
Pop culture prophets playing in my ears

I've got celestial mechanics
Synchronize my stars
Seasonal migrations, daily variations
World of the unlikely and bizarre

I've got idols and icons, unspoken holy vows
Thoughts to keep well hidden
Sacred and forbidden
Free to browse among the holy cows
That's why I believe

I believe in what I see
I believe in what I hear
I believe that what I'm feeling
Changes how the world appears
