Some New Things

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.

And it's lost in a thought

Never seen, never caught

And it's in a thought

Never seen, never caught

And it's lost in a thought

Never seen, never caught

And it's lost in a thought

In a Sun, in a Moon

In a cloud, in the air

In a scream, there's a tear

There's a stab, on a slab

Now the future eats a past

And it's shrinking, and it's fast

There's a mind, there's a hive

There is life, there is not

There's a name I forgot

There's a breath, not a thought

There's a lake, there's a snake

There's a knife giving life

There's a fool reaching up

To a star that erupts

In a flood rising up

To a nothing that is coming

And it's hungry like a monkey

There is blood in my eye

There is truth in a lie

There's a dog, ease of mind

There's a wire, there's a bind

I perceive, I don't breathe

I become, I'm undone

In the unseen there is love

There is ruin on the one

There's a rip, there's a drift

Stealing bliss from your lip

I'm insane, you're insane

Cut a vein in my brain

There's a trap, there's a catch

There's a golden shining arrow

There's a cancer in a marrow

There's a flame in a hand

There's a kneeling Glowing Man

There's a rope reaching up

To a sky, to a lie

In a spiral there's a tide

There's a flood, let's give up

There's a hand, there's a mouth

There's a stair winding down

To your chest, to your guts

Hold it in, don't give up

There's a dream, there's a sheen

There's an endless silver stream

There's a song, now there's not

Never caught, never lost

There's a sound coming now

In a cloud hanging down

Never played, uncontained

And it's growing, and it's flowing

And unfolding, and it's showing

In a lung, in a child

There's a fire running wild

In a mind, on a line

Parallel to a cross

There's a place, I forgot

Never seen, never caught

And it's lost in a thought

Let it out, lay it down

Let it out, let it out

Of your mouth, let it out

Let it out, let it out

Let him out, let him out
