lyrics

I am filled with words, and whirlwinds. Carousels of four ex-girlfriends
Making laps around my lobes, like the moon around the globe.
Manifested in vibration. Always dreaming of vacations
When the present matters most. I'm such a silly, starving ghost
And so ungrateful for the consciousness I'm granted.
So unaware of all the wonders of this world

I've been peering through a blindfold.
Walking backwards on the tightrope up above the black abyss.
With liquor lingering on my lips
And though I profit from your pension, I still cannot pay attention to the stories that you tell, of his heaven, or her hell
They're only places we extract from our emotions
Those extreme opposites are really only one
Waves are never seperated from their oceans
And your taste will always have a tipi on my tongue

Cause there's a method to the madness.
Something restless in my sadness waiting to awaken joy
In every girl and every boy
Until they're glowing incandescent
On the shadowed moon that crescents in a boundless sky of black that pushes every object back
To the moment where this all originated
To the place where there is nothing left but love
In a special singularity, sedated
In the never ending afterlife above
