Look To The Sun

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.

The labels that i claimed as me were no more than a skin

I wrapped around my conciousness as if it had an end

The calendar that gave the date was no more than a sign

I walked behind to find myself in present state of mind

The thirteen moons divide themselves; cycles of twenty eight

The farmers write their almanacs, the moon is never late

But how we count the days and hours place walls, confine the mind

We live in doubt and debt, for there is never enough time

The minute or the moment, how you think is your oponent

If you're listening right now, close your eyes and count to one

And on the morning i was born i faced the sun and shouted

My mama held me in her arms, she sang while my heart pounded

I look to the sun

But i follow the moon

It was a rainy rainy day i stuck up my own daddy

I saw the rain fall from his eyes as though the thugs had grabbed me

I look to the sun

But i follow the moon

Follow me into the wavy wavy water

The miles, they passed over her face like moods of fear and doubt, and

The sheer vibration of her world gave waves and waves and mountains

I look to the sun

But i follow the moon

Follow me into the wavy wavy water

And when the waterway stood to the mountains

Dogs and people fled the town

I could hear that lady shouting

Over every screaming sound

And the one who ran beside me

Grabbed my hand and started back

And the people turned and followed

And the dogs just stopped and sat

She said:

"follow me into the wavy wavy water"
