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

Oh, I've longed to start the fires
So while I am still breathing
There is a revolution in the Republic of Eden

Consider the lion
Lying on the plain
Watch his eyes as he surveys the pride and wildebeest remains
Though he may not show
He's the king of his domain
And woe betide the lion that tries to challenge his reign

Well, he owes and he owns nothing
He's standing still, not breathing
In his eyes, the revolution in the Republic of Eden

And those exploring planets
Report no signs of God
By the whirling firmament
Out the window of the fuselage
And the space between us
Yet there's no us or them
Whether we were born of a bang
Or the aftermath of requiem

Oh, I am a raging fire
I'm standing still, not breathing
Yes, I am the revolution in the Republic of Eden

Oh well, we owe and we own nothing
We're standing still, not breathing
Yes, we are the revolution in the Republic of Eden
