about

A long-germinating idea of a song. Reminds me of sitting @ dawn on my porch, reading poetry, and sipping coffee. Dedicated to Matt L and the birds.

The chords are Gsharpmaj, Fsharpmaj, A maj, Fsharpmin, with a suspension added back to Gsharpmaj.

lyrics

I know a perfect place that we could fit in
Eye to eye in the dark oblivious to sin
Oblivious to how time flies
And how the more I think, the less I realize

But all is what you make of it, is all

I know a human race that doesn't understand
Eye to eye with the cross with wings made of sand
Oblivious to how sight blinds
They com-modify our souls so they can advertise.

But all is what you make of it, is all.

(Chorus from previous track, "Spirant"):
Like the sea's foam
Like morning-after rain
Like commands worth taking
Whispin' over tan, covered shoulder bare
Mouthful of innocence

I know a perfect place where we can fit in (live in/be friends)
Eye to eye with the cross and wings made of sand
I'll take you to this place where could live in
But I'm found in the real world, and that doesn't swim.
