about

Suite in D, part 1.

lyrics

Time it was the drift and scud was everything
from sense to sensation was my prayer
joy and pain and love and hate the same to me
as long as they were strong as I could bear

And then within the wreckage of another day
shining crystal silence did arise
it pinned me to the floor and it held me there
so I could feel the blood sing in my eyes

And though I still agree with dark Siduri:
fill my belly, dance day and night,
I have learned there is a time to strip off my desires
and hang them up to dry in morning light

And to everything that crawls or flies or swims
I say: I am thee

And to everyone that kills and dies and wastes their precious time
I say, I am thee

To those who claim that love is naught but chemicals
I am you as sure as rain comes from the sky
This partial world is just dream enforced by habit;
what's real is how, in truth, we all must someday fly

And to everything that crawls or flies or swims
I say: I am thee

And to everyone that kills and dies and wastes their precious time
I say, I am thee
