lyrics

FIRST SONG
Sensing all your mind shifts,
feeling all your tides —
can there be love enough
for every one of us
in this vision of heaven that we create
for ourselves in our blindness?

Worlds of possibilities contained in an embrace,
burning from conception to the cradle of the grave —
paradise is lost between the seconds of the clock,
like a figure in the rain that dodges every drop.

So free the albatross,
and let it fly out from your thoughts until it is lost.
Just cut the ball and chain and free yourself,
claw out of the hole.
It's not so difficult to let it alone —
untie the rope you use to hang yourself,
and absolve your soul.

Pain's a distraction,
static on your radio:
dial in your frequency,
tune back into the show.
