The Utopian 03:56
The scene plays out In his mind Vestment worn of Reformer Tasks himself To redirect the Alpheus Will we ever survive A utopian world Will we survive Every utopian world The hum lingers on Clashing notes sustained The peach blossom spring The death of the apostate By himself Will diagnose and Prescribe Will we survive Every utopian world The hum lingers on Clashing notes sustained The peach blossom spring The death of the apostate
2.
The Hum 04:51
Our days are spent at windows Peering past all those who Came before We trace indelible lines Fingerprints on the glass The satellites hum and no one hears Their solitary echoes in the night Melodies crafted by better men Songs which will last lifetimes But the satellites hum and no one hears
3.
The melody a tapestry A thousand blocks of sound Weave unweave Mallet on wood Staccato hits fall, four at a time Weave unweave Your movements are science These moments are art Weave unweave Unbraiding symbols on paper Landscapes travel on air Weave unweave Singular Wander You’ll find your way Home Signs are blank At crossroads You'll find a new Home Burn the lamplight Unthread the cosmos You'll find your way Home This melody Which you hum Will guide me to You A tapestry of flesh Millions of carbon threads Weave unweave Flesh, muscle, bone Your flesh on mine, release this night Weave unweave Artistry gives way to A new found inquiry Weave unweave Unveiling time's cruelty Be there with me as I Weave and unweave
4.
Just ahead You see Something I don't Opportunity To be Something else Just behind You see Something we can’t Pain apparition Whipping you With insults unheard Silence so clear Just a hum Your voice Echo in my ear Distortion’s cry Obscures every dream Behind the veil Just a fable Always told Fainter each year If the ache Subsides Will you wake? Silence so clear The distance grows each year
