Serenade Lyrics

Serenade, in rhythm and swing
Serenade, the gift that we bring
Serenade, youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts
Dance a wild dance, be torn apart

Voices ringing in their heads
Their crashing hands in time
In sequence and in rhyme
The chant of a thousand-fold
The song of a million strong
Echoes their perfect praise

Serenade, in rhythm and swing
Serenade, the gift that we bring
Serenade, youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts
Dance a wild dance, be torn apart

From the mouths of babes and fools
Hunted melodies
With gracefulness and ease
Compose their gifted words
Orchestrate their moves
Echoes the perfect praise, serenade

Serenade, in rhythm and swing
Serenade, the gift that we bring
Serenade, youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts
Dance a wild dance, be torn apart

Prophets tell the tale
The legend and the lies
The fable and the rhymes
The chant of a thousand-fold
The song of a billion strong
Echoes the perfect praise
Serenade!

Serenade, in rhythm and swing
Serenade, the gift that we bring
Serenade, youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts
Dance a wild dance, be torn apart

In rhythm and swing
The gift that we bring
Youth runs wild with the beat in their hearts
Dance the wild dance, be torn apart
Serenade, in rhythm and swing
Serenade, the gift that we bring
Serenade...

Nothing Masonic about this from what i can tell. The fact the singles had Masonic symbols on them doesn't mean there's immediately meaning of that all over the place. Visuals and music don't always line-up, just look at music videos from the 80s and you'll notice that. Example: Safety Dance has nothing to do with spanking dwarfs in a medieval celebration.

I think it's more so a celebration of power, unity and sound. A message resounding through music. I noticed that the Quartet album has a lot of a feeling of a band being more aware of their position in the musical world. Hymn about selling your soul for success for example. Reap The Wild Wind about taking your chance and seeing where the ship strands on the shore. The sort of alienation, possibly from your audience, in Mine For Life. Interesting concept.
