The feel of the action
Is far behind
The fruit of the action
Has nailed you down... dragged you down...
- Progress -
Sealing up reaction
Overwhelms your conscience
Leads to more diversion
And pulls you down
Coming to attention
Going through the tension
Praying for the sanction
You're fading out
The feel of the action
The seed of the action
Will drag you down
Twenty fallen angels
Heading for salvation
Heading for the sanction
Will soil the sky
Gain a new dimension
Take a new direction
Whirlwind of emotion
For now's the time
- Progress, process, protest, no rest -
The feel the action...
Has nailed you down... dragged you down...
Nailed you down...
Nailed you down...
- Progress -
Twenty fallen angels
Heading for salvation
Heading for the sanction
Have reached the sun
Coming to attention
Going through the tension
Praying for the sanction
You're fading out
- I know this addiction
It's all in the passion -
The seed of the action
Is far behind
The feel of the action
Has nailed you down...
Is far behind
The fruit of the action
Has nailed you down... dragged you down...
Sealing up reaction
Overwhelms your conscience
Leads to more diversion
And pulls you down
Coming to attention
Going through the tension
Praying for the sanction
You're fading out
The seed of the action
Will drag you down
Heading for salvation
Heading for the sanction
Will soil the sky
Gain a new dimension
Take a new direction
Whirlwind of emotion
For now's the time
Has nailed you down... dragged you down...
Nailed you down...
Nailed you down...
Heading for salvation
Heading for the sanction
Have reached the sun
Going through the tension
Praying for the sanction
You're fading out
It's all in the passion -
The seed of the action
Is far behind
Has nailed you down...

"fruit of the action" is a reference to the philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita. It refers to the results or goal of human action. Too much passionate concern for goals causes grief.
