Lyrics
Art Of Life
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.
When I asked him,
he described a thousand lifetimes.
At each turn, a hint of what one still must learn.
Now I've read the thoughts of philosophers,
the words of liars, who say that underneath I'm
worthless.
Incomplete?
Some one said we live our lives in between the
extremes.
Is the art of life discipline?
Is that the sweet mystery?
The art of life is ...
without rushing, without faltering we push it as far
as we can.
Observe with patience.
Free your mind.
Efficiency, control.
To develop the form starts with acceptance,
then submission to the goal.
Some one said somewhere we live our lives in between
the extremes.
Is the art of life discipline?
Is that the sweetest mystery?
The art of life is ...
without rushing, without faltering, unraveling the
secrets of knowledge.
We must challenge and defeat our four natural enemies;
Fear.
Clarity of mind.
Power and the desire to rest.
