Worldwide Epiphany
Written, Produced and Performed by Todd Rundgren
From "No World Order"
Worldwide epiphany
Worldwide epiphany, epiphany
Down in the lowlands to the top of the hill
Don't know what's comin', but we know that it will
Blind in Benares, deaf and dumb in LA
Hiding in Africa, but nobody gets away
Worldwide epiphany
Worldwide epiphany, epiphany
Babies and bachelors, fishes, cabbages, and queens
Can't hear it comin', but we know what it means
Boats upon the ocean, every plane in the air
Never know just how or when, but we always know where
Worldwide epiphany
Worldwide epiphany, epiphany
Take it from the ground up, this is the last roundup
You can't win, and you can't break even
You can't be leavin' the game anyway
You've got to stay 'cause we came to play
It's a new gene, a new wavelength, or maybe it's a virus
Put the fire in us and inspire us
To trust and lust for the good life
And all that is required of us
Turn to the headline news as if we had a right to choose
To have no views as the rocket's red glare pollutes the air,
And we swear that it can't happen here
And we'll never be there
We got the right to know, which means
We got the right to misunderstand
And slant the plan to help our hand and man
They call it a culture, but it sucks you in like quicksand
Killer bees finally make it to Tokyo
Juliet never made it with Romeo
But check out the video later
Terminator III's gonna preview the next fifty years or so
Give it up one more time for the king of soul
Let the good times roll, bring it on, bring it on
Dusk 'til dawn, the landlady's gone
Send the bill to the government, pack it in cement
Worldwide epiphany
Worldwide epiphany, epiphany

Agreed, you either get or you don't. What I find most frustrating at times is trying to get my family, friends, etc. to get it. It seems so obvious to me, people really have to start figuring it out, there is strength in numbers.

It's different from suicidal thinking of "I want to kill myself". It's more like, "I want to get out of this body".
Look up Star Seeds

Brilliantly said, I can relate to that perfectly. People would often have a hard time talking to me once I mentioned or even insinuated a suicidal thought...the whole "you have so much to life for" line (although I know they meant well) could never stand against my reasoning for wanting out.
My wants always outweighed my needs.
Happens to me all the time, too! I don't verbalize it anymore. People don't get it. Spirit never dies. And mine is kicking and jumping and pleading to get outta this body

A reason? If I could pick one from the basket, it would possibly be the monotony of this thing we call a mainstream life. I know this is part of my journey, and I control my mind, but the emotional distortion that comes with this body make day to day life extremely hard. I walk through a shopping center and all I see is paper thin people with transparent personalities, I see, hear and feel absolutely everything around me, and its overwhelmingly depressing.
Fortunately, I life rather close to some beautiful forestry I go to on occasions to meditate., I will learn these mantras and try them there. Thank you!

For years I have suffered from depression, through all the years of medication, therapy and changes in life style to maintain a psychological balance, it is this feeling that has kept my suicidal tendencies at bay.Now I know they are two extremes you may not ever hear the typical sufferer of a mental illness say, but with ought it, I could honestly say that I would not be here making this thread tonight.
If I were to explain it to somebody, it would be hard to put it into words with ought sounding completely out-landish, But as of late, I'm finding more and more people are describing the exact same 'feeling' I have had for so many years. I can't fully describe what 'it' is, but 'its' big...on a global scale, some grand change is imminent, and we're all involved...To me, its getting stronger. I can hardly sleep now because if it.
Before I begin force feeding myself more medication....please can anybody tell me if theyre having the same feeling?
Please only honest and serious replies only.

I feel it and have done for years.
I just can not see my future anymore if i try to look 10 years ahead its black I am scared. I think about it everyday the feeling that something bad is coming. My wife used to think I was nuts when I used to talk to her about it but in the last three months she has changed and also feels it she is a very logical thinker this is very out of the norm for her.
