Lyrics to Hero with 1000 Eyes

HERO WITH 1000 EYES

(THESE ARE DREAMS)

PLEASE HOLD ON
I STILL SEE THE FUTURE WE LET SLIP AWAY
ALL ALONE
IT’S THE EGO’S JOY TO SEPARATE
WHEN DAYS FALL DOWN
AND THE STARLESS NIGHT’S AN INFINITE DECAY
NEW HOPE DAWNS  
ON THE FOOLISH AND THE BRAVE

IN MY DREAMS EVERY REGRET
IS WASHED AWAY IN CAMBELL’S RIVERBED
STREAMS OF NEW MYTHOLOGIES
METAPHORS LIVE LITERALLY
NOW I CAN SEE AS OTHER’S SEE
A LIGHT THROUGH HISTORY

I
I’M THE HERO WITH A 1000 EYES
EVERY LIFE YOU’RE LIVING IS MY LIFE
AND IF YOU SHOW ME JUST WHAT IS RIGHT
I WILL FIND OUR WAY OUT OF THE NIGHT

LIFE’S NOT LONG
FOR A HOLLOW MAN TO WIN A MORTAL DAY
BUT LIFE GOES ON
THROUGH THE GENERATIONS WE CREATE
HEROES GONE
BURNED PROMETHEAN, AND LIVED TO SEIZE THE DAY
NOW OUR TIME COMES
TO REVEAL THE WISDOM THEY ONCE SAVED

SOME ARE FOOLED SOME OF THE TIME
BUT YOU CAN’T BLIND A HERO WITH A 1000 EYES
YOU MAY THINK THE STORIES LIE
I BELIEVE THEY ARE ALIVE
WORDS TO BRIDGE THE GREAT DIVIDE
A THOUSAND SYMBOLS POINTING TOWARDS A SINGLE

I
I’M THE HERO WITH A 1000 EYES
EVERY LIFE YOU’RE LIVING IS MY LIFE
AND IF YOU SHOW ME JUST WHAT IS RIGHT
I WILL FIND OUR WAY OUT OF THE NIGHT
I’M THE HERO WITH A 1000 EYES
EVERY LIFE YOU’RE LIVING IS MY LIFE
AND IF YOU SHOW ME JUST WHAT IS RIGHT
I WILL FIND OUR WAY HOME

THEY SAY ITS DARKEST BEFORE THE DAWN
(I WILL FIND OUR WAY HOME)
THE DAWN IS OVER, NOW ITS OUR TIME
(TIME MELTS STREAMS)
STREAMS OF NEW MYTHOLOGIES
(THESE ARE DREAMS)
METAPHORS LIVE LITERALLY
NOW I CAN SEE AS OTHER’S SEE
(A LIGHT THROUGH HISTORY)

I’M THE HERO WITH A 1000 EYES
EVERY LIFE YOU’RE LIVING IS MY LIFE
AND IF YOU SHOW ME JUST WHAT IS RIGHT
I WILL FIND OUR WAY OUT OF THE NIGHT
(I WILL FIND OUR WAY HOME)
I WILL FIND OUR WAY OUT OF THE NIGHT
(I WILL FIND OUR WAY HOME)
I WILL FIND OUR WAY OUT OF THE NIGHT
(I WILL FIND OUT WAY HOME)
(A LIGHT THROUGH HISTORY)
(THESE ARE DREAMS)

Zuben El Genubi interviews, AoV songs on The Invisible World with Frank Todaro

Agents ahoy!

Your pal Zuben aka Phil Ristaino, Agent of Venus here.  Glad to see you back.  This is a quick post.  Over the past month, month 1/2, I've been interviewed twice on the magnificent The Invisible World with Frank Todaro.  Frank is an actor who lives in NYC with a great voice for radio, as well as a fellow sci fi promulgator and comic book buff.  Up until mid last year, we performed together in the NYC long form episodic improv group Start Trekkin NY.  Frank became a great friend, and we would have long conversations about paranormal phenomena and fictional fascination.  Fortunately, Frank is channeling his love for BSG, Dr Who and the X Men into a weekly online radio show.  It gets better and better every week, so get on over there and download his shows!  You can hear new ones at his show's site every Tuesday night.

In the mean time, Frank was kind enough to feature two Agents of Venus tunes on the show:  Hero with 1000 Eyes in the first interview, and Cobalt Silver on the second.  Hopefully this trend will continue and we will play the entire album over the course of 12 interviews, if Frank says its cool.  Thanks, Agent Todaro!

Also featured in the interviews:  my take on synchronicity, stories of phenomena I've experienced that I can't truly explain, visions, 2012, precognitive dreams, and lots more.  Dig it and dig in!
