East Of Eden (version 1)
it seems that paradise
has been well locked and barred
to all the issues of Adam
it seems that children must
pay for their parents crimes
until they wish they never had them

the clouds are fabric balls
the earth machinery
to gather power from the stars
each of us has a gateway
through which infinity calls
to touch each victim through their scars

we are walking through
a kingdom that is found
out here somewhere East of Eden

East of Eden
East of Eden
East of Eden
East of Eden

Notes
Lyrics written by Geoff Mann.
Released on Smiling At Grief. When the band were recording the Fact And Fiction album at
Revolution Studios, they re-recorded this song. In the meantime, Geoff had written three extra lines to
the beginning of the third verse. Strangely, those were never included in any CD booklet.
The second version will be included soon.
