Sometime in 1994, I found an earth religion
Diana and I decided we'd follow the goddess
And touch the ground with reverence and peace
For her it was something new to try, but
For me it was a way, a release, a way out
Something to get rid of my own personal demons
But those demons remained, hidden within
And instead I was given a new inspiration
For a sprawling story and a fictional cleansing
By 1996 they were gone--the goddess and the girl
And my demons demanded their payback
But instead I moved skyward, out into the universe
Out there, somewhere, where the spirits nestled
Among the stars and the energies of the heavens
Lay my ultimate goal, my ultimate life's meaning
Out there, I searched for a deeper meaning
Of what I wanted to do and what needed doing
And I sent those demons packing, never to return
