about

"As I sing the body electric" - is from a quote by Walt Whitman

lyrics

We weave a network of circuitous words
See the shadow on the lampshade
Looks like a hangman's hood

And I agree, I see but it's only another betrayal
Of my sense of completion

As I sing the body electric
Current conducted to earth
And when you leave 
I will be singing I swear

That is only the physical body with interior discipline
And the song has already been written, it is whole

The web of pulses will spell out your name
Until the wheel of generations comes around again

And now you see what will be, but it's only
Another betrayal of your need for confusion

Faded, escape with your life
Bright light of hope in your eye
White as the white in the sky, serenade

That is only the physical body with exterior weathering
And this song has already been written
For your soul, the serenade
And the path of light is leading you somewhere...
