The Day of the Dove

The Cage on this side of paradise
Holds the devil in the dark
The balance of terror and errands of mercy
Bring out the enemy with in; a wolf in the fold
With a wink of an eye we receive a taste of Armageddon

The patterns of force in a private little war
Hold no shore leave for the obsession
Of a homecoming to all our yesterdays
Let us return to tomorrow
And the City on the Edge of Forever

Where a metamorphosis can occur
Bringing about a logic to rival Spock’s brain
And the Children shall lead us
Away from the dagger of the mind
Showing us the way to Eden
