"Blue Pegasus" is a song about faith vs. phantasy, the undue attention we give to winged beasts, the tendency to lift up our (super)heroes to Messianic stature, and the truth about who we really are (Big Guy knows it, we know it too).
lyrics
Blue Pegasus:
quit watching us,
'cause something about you just isn't quite right,
like telephone salesmen or wolves in the night,
or other winged beasts with agendas that you cannot guess…
Put on your favorite dress,
ignore that mess,
do what you do best - rest.
Use the red phone,
when you're calling me,
and I'll slide right down the pole into the cave,
out the secret entrance - it's you I will save,
with blasters and burners and gadgets and boats, cars, and planes…
See I'm always the same,
(and) I know you by name,
before you had a name - fame.
New levels,
new devils,
but no evil has claim to your destiny,
he's only as strong as you give him to be,
so get thee behind me and find out why you came to be…
To find you in Me,
the Infinite Sea,
Absolute History - free.

A powerhouse follow-up - makes me think of the Pumpkins in the early 90s - except it's not the early 90s, and Cloudkicker is not the Pumpkins (in a good way). Har Adonai
