Confusion will be my epitaph
As I crawl, a cracked and broken path
If we make it, we can all sit back and laugh
But I fear tomorrow I'll be cryin

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Closer To Believing is my favourite GL song off that side of Works Volume One. I love the romantic imagery and use of choir. C'est La Vie was one the one that got trotted out most possibly so Emerson could play the Honher Accordian but ELP did play CTB on the massive Works tour when they still had the orchestra (eventually dropped for financial reasons). 

It's now November and I'm reviving this because I'm sure there will be a lot of discussion about Pete after the announcement of his passing. Just wanted to say that I agree with the above, and that my favorite of his KC lyrics is "Islands".

He also wrote the lyrics to I Believe In Father Christmas. The 3 verses represent Past, Present and Future. Only The Pogues wrote a better albeit very different seasonal song (imo).
RIP Pete.
