lyrics by shaun lawton
we're all hyper-linked in ways we only discover
on the days its proven
which only goes to show thought is a contact sport
we forget about after
we finish playing and that thing that you do
when you talk to yourself
reasoning it all out that's not thinking at all
it's just the shimmering
the stellar serenades slowly fall into position
under the canticles of light we are hypnotized
caught up in this electromagnetic composition
the connections that we make help us realize
wake of confetti like echoes sent from the contact
with thought itself
something that usually takes more than one mind
to even begin to see
more clearly its rippling outline
through the refractions displaced
as it appears to be only to vanish
before the next event horizon
the stellar serenades slowly fall into position
under the canticles of light we are hypnotized
caught up in this electromagnetic composition
the connections that we make help us realize
the mirage we each represent
in this phantom procession
flying the rippling banners of our faces
we know the same wind
has carried each of our voices away
so we collect the seashells of each other's echoes
and string them into symphonies that become
our lullabies to help us get to sleep at night
the stellar serenades have fallen into position
under the canticles of light we are hypnotized
caught up in this electromagnetic composition
making the connections helps us realize
