lyrics

i. An appearance of life

What you have discovered is already there,
you realize, as you finger your strange new appendages.

Sound bites and snippets. a life made up;
a profile, a proof, an avatar.

Two screens conversing until the power runs out,
until the words make no sense anymore.

I used to know what it meant, I used to know what it meant,
I used to know what it meant,
but now I can’t remember.

Two screens conversing, hundreds looking on.
Thousands listening in.

But the content is unknown, the message is forgotten.
Sounds, lights, fading.

And what we discover is already there,
already threadbare.


ii. Areola

Oh, to soar on the infinite plains, to drink from marvelous fountains,
to swim in eternal, ever-changing oceans of gold and shimmering light.

The sun is a cradle, combustion is life, renewal and spindrift and haze.
We dance to the song of almighty gravity, we whistle to the illusion of time.

Wingships that sail the vast reaches of space, unfolding their fiery tongues;
it’s not cold and empty, it’s not dark and scared, it’s no void at all.

It’s not cold and empty, it’s not dark and scared, it’s no void at all.
