caught up (sometimes it causes me to tremble..)

i have seen your senior senators
vanish in a jet
i have seen your senior statesmen can't be found
i have seen our cost of living rise beneath a ton of debt
the governments caught up while we go down

i have seen your brilliance
vanish in the hazing,
your eschaton get caught up in their bog
i have seen your glory in the garden is amazing
two angels walkin' guard in Eden’s fog

i have seen your shepherds
vanish with the chic
your pillar of fire goin' up in smoke
i have seen your Day caught up in half a day a week
your sheep producin' wool nak-ed and broke

i have seen your daughters
vanish in the streets
i have seen your sons caught up in wars
seers visualizin' every little kid they meet
caught up in what's best to use 'em for

i've seen your holy water
vanish with the ark
caught upon the tree your flesh and bone
i've seen your body vanish
then, your body miss the mark
then your mystery, your majesty, and throne--
your mystery and majesty unknown
