lyrics

The journey of sorrows is a wish infinite
let your mind fathom your abyss
and sink into sands of sanctitude
solitude
i was not the church-going type
until i found God in the only glory of a Fire
circled by a tribe of kings and beggars
queens and lepers are leaping from their skin
for transcendence is only your perception’s release
transcendence is only your perception’s release.

And so
our journey is not what
but who we are.

But for a name i wander the stars as a gypsy.
wondering while stumble feet sneak the door crack
fly to imagination is navigation thought back.
thought back to my lack of concentrations that are melding in early light of this day...
which is Everyday
and everyday i rise and meet you in the place between speckle and sunray

Speckle and sunray

And so my death will not be as the setting sun
the descent knows not our crescent rise
in the dawn, my death will as a new life iridescent
as presence of One shatters footsteps running from nowhere into everywhere
when the place never mattered
and the dreams of direction remained to create new worlds and Beauty
we create new worlds and Beauty
and slip into sands of sanctitude
solitude
i was not the church-going type until i found God in the only glory of a Fire
circled by a tribe of kings and beggars
queens and lepers are leaping from their skin
for transcendence is only your perception’s release
release
release

Bleed Truth through your veins
it will stain your soul for life

I’m a gypsy.
