lyrics
You went to sleep and said that comets streak the face of the infinite night like giant icy tears were cried by a cosmic goddess.
The comets in their secret paths have always looked for Her because they know it's She who'll give them their true purpose.
Ancient structure light-years long lie dormant in a growing song, which when it's finally sung will wake them & reshape the cosmos.
Hidden forest glades can reveal things about the stars that you would never know your whole life unless you knew to ask the right people.
You're one of the few left who have souls that sleepwalk through the stars, and now that you realize it, you must decide what you will do with it.
There are dangers out there too large for our minds to understand, but if you find where She is, well then We can probably wrest Her from It.
Go to sleep and dream a map that leads through hidden eons tucked behind the wall of stars we'll enter through the rumored cracks within them.
Your map matches sound-wave contours of a baby's laugh you overheard once when you woke up in a strange grey room made out of rhythm.
Lifted by the night winds, you will hear the stars' positions in the giant music that makes up our universe.
Shifted by our mind-winds, the information will bend into dreams that sing the meanings of your mission and your work.
Don't try to remember; one day it just happens; there are some things too amazing; try not to forget them.
Watching on the ocean, waiting to see signals, from distances that gods would grow old trying to traverse.
All the fables you have ever heard within a single whispered word--that is the essence of Her life and of Her secret.
If you stand before Her and survive Her spirit's light, then you've escaped the old life by finally finding where the sea and sky met.
What we carried on and what we wanted out of this was just that feeling that we get when night is birthed on summer evenings.
For so long, the only thing that I remembered out of all of this was how you hid your smile and said you must be dreaming.
