“Somehow I found myself here today. Awakened to these thoughts and feelings, Or an oceanic sense of lucid dreaming? A strange sort of spherical sensation, With an overwhelming sense of apprehension. An emptiness that thunders out From beyond the mind’s horizon. So far beyond our reach, Where consciousness coalesces Like the billowing loom of thunder clouds. The streaming runs of thought go ‘Round and ’round and ’round. Till the dancing funnels of wind touch down. And the earth bows down in reverence, Lest it should be torn to pieces And blown into oblivi-essence. And all who live will run and hide And do what we’ve done since the dawn of time. Everyone flees from the cyclone winds of One’s own mind. But if one day we should stand on the canyon’s edge, Peer out through the beating rain, the pounding wind You’ll find that everyone is everyone And everything is everything. Open up Your hearts and minds. ‘Cause I remember Nothing. One day now It all falls down. But love must keep on Loving. So start the show, Here we go. Dark to light, The day from night. A roll of a mountain, A rip in the sky. Turning the dust to flesh And ashes to breath. A pull of a muscle, A pin in the eye. An initial spark To get this heart of mine pumping. And another To get these feet of mine running. But sadly they’ve just taken me To a place Where all is devoid Of your embrace. So baby now we’re falling Baby now you’re falling Baby yeah, yeah Baby now we’re falling, baby yeah. Tripping and tumbling, Flipping and fumbling. Flowing on the rivers of sadness That have been forever rumbling. But from dawn until now Of all the paths that I could have gone down Of all the valleys That I could have been flowing through. In spite of all the chaos And all that has come between us, How is it I still find myself Here with you. So somehow we find ourselves here today, A feeling in this oceanic sense of lucid dreaming. A strange sort of spherical sensation, An emptiness that thunders out From beyond the mind’s horizon. And all of us, we run and hide, Do what we’ve done since the dawn of time. Peering out through the beating rain, The pounding wind, Everyone is everyone And everything is everything.”
