| Lyrics: | nothing but drinking, drinking, drinking. sucking in, breathing in the ice-cold sea water, being
one.
unquenchable thirst, insatiable hunger, a will that never dries up.
/>
swaying with the tide, the ocean breeze breathes around you; sheltered in vastness, waste,
blindness, sheltered in sleep, dream, silence, sheltered in rhythm, reflex, oblivion. this is how
you drift, day and night, consuming time, innocently.
around you are myriads of
others, solitary, glasslike. and when the triumvirate appears at the end of the six-headed night
above the seas, the surface of the water will explode into blazing colours and everything will rise
from the deep darkness and reach out shimmering sails to the red-green-golden suns.
it is quite impossible for the living to travel to this extraordinary world. still, it may happen
that we meet there even if we know not of each other. in fact we know nothing there.
we
drift towards and away from each other without nostalgia, sorrow or complaint.
we
know nothing of birth or death yet we live, think, feel.
reaching this extraordinary
world means being unable to be anywhere else ever again, never.
still, i don't speak of this
world with caution, retaliation or threat. sin does not exist there, neither does love, only
freedom.
and the ocean offers space for all, constantly placing us at the best
possible point during every moment of our eternal drift.
why do i tell you about this
world?
i've been sitting here a long time, listening to the music and waiting for your
arrival. i've thought long about this world.
if it exists, or if it is only a product
of my imagination, is, as you may know by now, of little or no consequence.
it offers
comfort, as everything about it is mild, without reason, and for all, it is perfect.
and it is there where i now go... |
