lyrics
Beauty is from beginning to end, and I couldn’t imagine what was but no longer is
Capture the drop and its rings
The first chant that echoes
The soul is within and the vision is all around
The stories I’ve lived to write
From these hills I’ve walked
and from them, I’ve grown
Draw their essence
and we find our way back to the center of these echoes
Free from the illusion of a machine,
we are
in our false homes
leading us away
The path to mastery, here and will always be a noble life pursuit
There is no golden palace in which I will arrive outside of the contemporary mastery
A strife, a flicker of intuition that’s caught by the keen, watchful and reflective eye
My rapid footsteps are hitting the ground as I journey inward towards this forest,
it’s calling me deeper and now, I cannot turn back for the dusk descending in
Pure and magnificent
Once again, here and myself
So what is it about this dark sea,
and this endlessness of lights surrounding us?
Why are we so different from them, and why is this everything I’ve wanted?
All part of some spiral, but I can’t even see it
This is a whole other world;
the crystallized details around our star
Maybe if I speak to the ocean, it will give back to me
The seashore, for us, it’s like a place of gathering with the stars, not only above us
So I come here.. to speak with them
Chiseled into stone, and left in the garden
Magnificent, but vacant upon our departure
So take this book
Our momentary perfection and words die, too
if kept in stillness;
unlike the sea
‘As told from my stream of consciousness to this monument’
Lord knows: written, or it didn’t happen
Blood dries
Seraphim angels require renewal and constant sacrifice
in cycles through blood,
and stories tell of that which lives in the eye of God
