Breathe into your highest mind
constant constellation, the obstruction of time
she can show you everything, mother earth, the heaven queen
but it is inside your heart, you will learn to sing
They were like caged butterflies
inside their shells they thought theyd died
the acid, the roaring waves, their broken bones, and tiny caves
and then they broke free and they flew away
Infinite poetry, lightning bug symphony
when our souls met they said
finally!
a blink of an eye, the talk of the times
today you forgot everything inside your mind
Blessed are the human hearts
the sycamores, the universe
my eyes are bright, your eyes are bright
you’re (we’re) learning how to break until you’re (we’re) alright
so you (we) can see the light
Infinite poetry, lightning bug symphony
when our souls met they said
finally
a blink of an eye, the talk of the times
today you forgot everything inside your mind
They were like caged butterflies
inside their shells they thought theyd died
the acid, the roaring waves, their broken bones, and tiny caves
and then they broke free and they flew away
They flew away, to brighter days, to brighter days
And I’ve changed, and you’ve changed,
and they looked around and saw your face
and they said you’ve changed
