lyrics

Living in the haze of those dark days, the memories fade but the feeling stays: so many things I meant to say, I was lead astray, and now it’s too late

Or was it just fate mean to create some sort of substrate for delayed reflections on the ways that I’ve been swayed and pushed away?

I’m hanging on for love to shine through to the vine I barely cling to: Something divine entwined behind the Planck length: Lord give me strength to, walk through myself with you

The inner figures I have come to know have told me it is “so below, just as it is above”: the state of love reflects it so, and it shows the more I grow, learn to relate, and integrate the image from the depths to take the steps: consent, surrender to the role

I’m hanging on for love to shine through, to the vine I barely cling to, something serene unseen between the Planck length, lord give me strength to walk through myself with you

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shots will fire, bells will ring, Cupid comes on fluttering wings, when I know the time is right, I will make the sacrifice, sacrifice! Time to die! Say goodbye to older I! Change my attitude to life and plunge the dagger deep inside:

A dance for love, is a dance to the death, two by two these lovers dance the arabesque, a dance to submit, and a dance to aggress, one by one they plunge those swords into their breasts

But the arrows of Eros, have struck me deep inside: My independence bleeds: The initiatory rite

The provost of Logos, must step down and resign: The sacred marriage slays the childish state of mind

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Living in the haze of those dark days, the memories fade but the feeling stays: So many things I meant to say, I was lead astray, now it’s too late

Or was it just fate meant to relate: Atone the sins through work within: As so, it is without: My outer world dispels the doubts

I’m hanging on for love to shine through to the vine I barely cling to, something profound abound surrounds the Planck length, Lord give me strength to: walk through myself with who? Was through myself with clues? Walk through myself with you
