lyrics

"TIME SPEED"

When the year winds down,
Moonlight reflects off of sequential stones.
When the year winds down,
Calendars crumble like dry, brittle bones.

Another cycle spirals even higher
With the lighting of the new year fire!
Another cycle spirals even higher
With the lighting of the new year fire!

When the time speeds past,
It hyper hastens from childhood to old age.
When the time speeds past,
We see the mathematical miracle at play.

Another cycle spirals even higher
With the lighting of the new year fire!
Another cycle spirals even higher
With the lighting of the new year fire!

We have a temporary window into this vital universe!
We grow adamantly attached to that which we see here first!
My mother's fertile egg allowed only one swimming sperm inside!
Perhaps as many as a hundred million potential siblings died!
The swirling speed of time takes away my every breath
On a seemingly accelerating trajectory toward death!

When the loss is life,
We funereally contemplate its worth.
When the loss is life,
We dissolve back into the hungry Earth.

Another cycle spirals even higher
With the lighting of the new year fire!
Another cycle spirals even higher
With the lighting of the new year fire!
