Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When there was darkness
And the void was king and ruled the elements
When there was silence
And the hush was almost deafening
[Verse 2]
Out of the emptiness (Salvation)
Salvation
Rhythm and light and sound
[Verse 3]
It was the Rock and Roll Creation
It was a terrible big bang
It was the ultimate mutation
Ying was searching for his Yang
And he looked and he saw that it was good
[Verse 4]
When I'm alone beneath the stars
And feeling insignificant
I turn within to see the forces
That created me
[Verse 5]
I look to the stars and the answer is clear
I look in the mirror and see what I fear
[Verse 6]
'Tis the Rock and Roll Creation
'Tis the absolute rebirth
It is the rolling of the ocean
And the rocking of the earth
And I looked and I saw that it was good
