Testo Stitches - The Magic Lantern
Testo della canzone Stitches (The Magic Lantern), tratta dall'album Love of Too Much Living
We're all a stitch
Cut from the same thread
And the thread weaves back through time
An umbilical line
From a fireside four hundred thousand years ago
Toward those who'll be born tomorrow
And the needle's eye's no coincidence
And each stitch is blind to its consequence
Don't let the fire go out
Don't let the fire go out
Let it burn
We're all a square of earth
Fertile with dreams and desires
And to dust we'll all return
It's a hard lesson to learn
That youth can't conceive of its ending
Until the bark like the branch starts bending
Then the weariness falls without a sound
And if heaven exists it's in the ground
So stick your hands deep in the soil
The earthworms a marvel of industry and toil
Will fill the earth
We're all pure energy
That can't be created or destroyed
We just change from form to form
Electrical storm
That crackles with all the events of our lives
And from birth to death a spark survives
So soon enough we'll meet the ground as lightning
To fire another day as it's brightening
You did your best right to the end
Turn the machines off
And let the breath expend
And that was love
