Lyrics for Verse 1:
Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
lets me see...
Lyrics for prechorus 1:
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
Lyrics for chorus 1:
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.
Lyrics for Verse 2:
Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
lets me see...
there is so much more and
beckons me to look through to these infinite possibilities...
Lyrics for prechorus 2:
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
drawn outside the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
Lyrics for chorus 2:
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.
LYRICS FOR REST OF SONG (tab is in order)
Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.
I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.
With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. Keep going...
