lyrics

Wait. Think for a moment.
in all you feel and care for.
You wonder what it's there for and what from?
And just to know it.
A hollow prize when analysed,
but loosen up those ties;
If we can touch, just for the moment,
Components rush and weave and make belief,
but hey, it's only real.

So, we overcame delusion but not its elegance.
We dance like spirits, except spirits cannot dance.

Spirits; They writhe in fiction.
With a hope for mental growth. A self-obsessed insistence to exist!
And some permit them - Cast them anchors overboard, drop the spirits because
it's all in your mind! And that's all in your body.
And we're all in the universe, trial-and-error-ing 'til it works.

I've seen anathematic beauty, there by the grace of chance.
We dance like spirits, except spirits cannot dance.

[Sundara avasara.]

And we're infatuated.
Of what emanated.

Purity's everywhere you look? Look at your hands.
We dance like spirits, except spirits cannot dance.

Oh, no! Can you hear the poison flow?
Sucking out the silence.
Hustling reliance to the droves.
Oh, no! Can you feel the poison flow?
Shouldn't sweat the science.
Mystery's the wise we're yet to know.

So can we touch, just for the moment?
Components rush and weave and make belief,
but hey, it's only real.

And we overcame delirium but not its elegance.
We dance like spirits, except spirits cannot dance.
