lyrics

MAD IN THE HEAVENS

CHORUS
Is it a dream or is it a nightmare?
Is it a breathing when you're all alone?
Is it the world spinning mad in the heavens
making pretty pictures, breathing steady tones?

Flowers in the garden arc their faces toward sunlight
Even when it's raining, flowers laugh into the night
Tuned into a whispering circadian rhythm
Silent in the darkness, silent in the light CHORUS

Carried on a soundwave in its own peculiar music,
Each life is but a dreamtime in the shadow of the grave
You can twirl the fire 'til it melts the glass and shape it,
Opening ever wider to the wisdom of the wave CHORUS

Now all I can remember is a feeling like a gnawing
in briefly melting pictures of a language gone astray
You seem like a wizard with a heart of incantation
I feel like the coastline, water echoes in my caves

Just listen to the spirit of the human affirmation
It's louder than the battlecries and mass misinformation
Singing out the lost chord 'til everyone can hear it
We're seeing through the fearmind to what's behind it all
Tell me, CHORUS
