Lyrics
Creation Dream
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
centred on silence
counting on nothing
i saw you standing on the sea
and everything was
dark except for
sparks the wind struck from your hair
sparks that turned to
wings around you
angel voices mixed with seabird cries
fields of motion
surging outward
questions that contain their own replies...
you were dancing
i saw you dancing
throwing your arms toward the sky
fingers opening
like flares
stars were shooting everywhere
lines of power
bursting outward
along the channels of your song
mercury waves flashed
under your feet
shots of silver in the shell-pink dawn
