Re: Satori - Glimpse of Truth

back to the "undertow" lyrics:

44&2 has "bathed in the fountain" (46&2) twice
its "venemous voice tempts", stikes "you" dumb

then perspective of new landscape (second sun?)
allegory/cave > evolutionary, dimensional wisdom
aha! voice beckons from beneath the "nigredo"!
"cold black water", the "currents" of which
suggests, beckons, sucks, & swallows ...44&2.

"he" then realizes something is being taught
which startles? bc he stumbles to his knees...
knock 46&2 down, i'll come back running
knock 44&2 down, it won't be long now
get up, and free yourself from yourself.

"give this to me" -_-

it has happened twice, so third time's the charm!
new landscape becomes too familiar/"comfortable"
time to move, time to get baptized by the voice

so, the first two times, ego was taking notes.
"i've done the math enough to know
the details of our second-guessing"
NOW is the time to shut the fuck up
only questions and unknowings...
"how could i let this happen again?"

a perfect circle - gravity

lost again
broken and weary
unable to find my way
tail in hand
dizzy and clearly unable to
just let this go

i am surrendering to gravity and the unknown
catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
i choose to live

i fell again
like a baby unable to stand on my own
tail in hand
dizzy and clearly unable to just let this go
high and surrendering to gravity and the unknown
catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
i choose to live, i choose to live, i choose to live

catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
help me survive the bottom

calm these hands before they
snare another pill and
drive another nail down another
needy hole please release me

i am surrendering to gravity and the unknown
catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
i choose to live, i choose to live

also, a perfect circle's "the package"
