Listen to Eagles Dare by Richard Charles Stevens
Listen to Oh Yeah by Yello
We eagles dare
We eagles dare
.
I open my eyes
Peek with hope through the blinds
Felt composed as I slept
Feel reposed as I rise
Unopposed to the light I delight in the homecoming skies
.
We eagles dare
.
With a low humming sigh of unspoken delight
Too remarkably serene to see motion denied
For unbroken is my oath to steep emotional highs
Open to entreat of my devotional guide
To leap blind into daylight
And exceed the reach of rail height
As I scale heights unforeseen
Proceeding hail of sleeping trail hike
.
We eagles dare
.
In my dream
Keen to sustain flight
Like a tailed kite
Rides the breeze
Relieved to be perceived indefatigably at ease
Fate staked no great claim upon each vein of famed release
Therefore on this one fine day
I dress up in the tethers of belief
.
Belief (repeat)
.
That there’s forever to be gleaned
Once we pre-eminently bleed
To seed hope peeking through the blinds each time we elegantly leap
.
We eagles dare
.
We eagles dare
.
Dare leap
Dare leap
Dare leap
.
Wide awake
Yet fast asleep
My charmed heart bargains to repeat
Its beat remarks on indiscreet advances
As each fever passes
.
Passes
Passes
Passes
Passes
Passes
Passes
Fever passes
.
Mastering the art of breathing freely and cathartically
Puppeteering interweaving arteries
.
Every day parades uniqueness
No two play the same in sequence
Not a lesson need be heedless
Not a blessing deemed as needless
Clearly we are masterpieces
Sincere works of artful thesis
Nearly free
And halfway home
Prepared for where the pathway leads us
.
Juxtaposed to the light in the homecoming skies
Lies Cimmerian shade of unspoken abide
Scar tissue healing with lotion applied
By entreat of our devotional guide
Leaping blind into the daylight
To exceed the reach of rail height
As we scale heights unforeseen
And make believe
In faith today may be the day
We wake up to the dream
.
Wake up to the dream
Wake up to the dream
Wake up to the dream
Dream
Dream
Dream
Dream
Dream
.
Dream
Dream
.
Dream
Dream
.
People try to bleed us dry
Keen describing steep decline
Feel the need reminding we are tied to preconceived design
Care not if we seek advice
E’er obliged to speak their minds
Dare to mention condescension
Make no bones
There will be tension
Rate of growth declared exemption
Cases show no fair intention
Unaware we eagles dare
To reach the peak for cleaner air
(We eagles dare)
.
Reach the peak for
Reach the peak for
Reach the peak for
Reach the peak for
Peak for
Peak for
Peak for
Peak for
Peak for
Peak for
Cleaner air
.
Reach the peak
Reach the peak
Reach the peak for cleaner air
Unaware we eagles dare
.
We open our eyes
Peek with hope through the blinds
Felt alone as we fell
Feeling swell as we rise
.
With a low humming sigh of unspoken delight
Too remarkably serene to see motion denied
.
