When there was darkness and the void was king and ruled the elements
When there was silence and the hush was almost deafening


Out of the emptiness, Salvation! (Salvation!)
Rhythm and light and sound
It 'twas the Rock & Roll creation

It 'twas a terrible big bang
It 'twas the ultimate mutation
Ying was searching for his yang

And he looked and he saw that it was good

When I'm alone beneath the stars and feeling insignificant

I turn within to see the forces that created me

I look to the stars and the answer is clear

I look in the mirror and see what I fear

It 'tis the Rock & Roll creation

It 'tis the absolute rebirth
It 'tis the rolling of the ocean
And the rocking of the earth

And I looked and I saw that it was good
