Electricity? Biology?
Seems to me it's Chemistry

Surge of energy, spark of inspiration
The breath of love is electricity

But dreams don't need to have motion
To keep their spark alive
Obsession has to have action
Pride turns on the drive

If we keep our pride --
Though paradise is lost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost

Better the pride that resides
In a citizen of the world
Than the pride that divides
When a colorful rag is unfurled

Half the world cries
Half the world laughs
Half the world tries
To be the other half

If laughter is a straw
For a drowning man

I wasn't walking on water
I was standing on a reef
When the tide came in
Swept beneath the surface
Lost without a trace
No hope at all

When the ebbing tide retreats
Along the rocky shore line
It leaves a trail of tidal pools
In a short lived galaxy

and now you're trembling on a rocky ledge
staring down into a heartless sea
can't face life on a razor's edge
nothing's what you thought it would be

You don't get something for nothing
You don't get freedom for free

Don't want to silence
A desperate voice
For the sake of security
No one wants to make a terrible choice
On the price of being free

Rested and fearless, cheered by your nearness
I knew which direction was right
The case had been tried by the jury inside
The choice between darkness and light...

Gravity and distance
Change the passage of light
Gravity and distance
Change the color of right

it's the colour of your heartbeat
a rising summer sun
the battle lost -- or won
