about

Written and recorded May 2002 in Ohio; Aaron Fuleki on drums.

lyrics

You saw with clarity
In my kingdom of the blind
You carved upon the walls
In the cavern of my mind
You solved my riddle of
The sound you cannot hear
You charted all my seas
But can you cross my last frontier?

Can you make me feel like
I was made for you?
Rip the heavens open
Making me anew
Can you make me feel like
I won’t fall apart?
Dig into my ribcage
Chisel out my heart

If I were made a child
Then you’re the dark I fear
If I were made a beast
Then you’re the hunter’s spear
If I were innocent
Then you’re the naked cold
But can you spin a web
Around what cannot be controlled
You know what I will choose
Before I make my choice
You know my every word
Before I even sound my voice
You know my body like
It was your very own
But can you set in motion
All the mysteries you’ve known?

So can you not create
And can you not instill
With all-perceiving eyes
And all decoding will?
Can you replace this stone
With something that can feel?
