This lake we’re swimming in is a forgery,
This thing we call reality makes no sense to me.
I try to integrate, keep spinning all the plates,
But the equation just won’t take this damn duality.
Between the upper atmosphere and soil,
We live and laugh and weep and work and toil.
Never making sense of what lies beyond the fence,
It’ll all be revealed when we shed this mortal coil.
So what does it matter?
Why should we care?
When we’re all here right now,
Like fish swimming through the air.
Flying out to Red, the long way.
Do we always make it harder on ourselves?
Flying out to Red, the long way round.
Do we always make it harder on ourselves?
Go find yourself a new machine,
One to take you to the edge of what we know.
Ride the slipstream through competitors and clouds,
Until you find the fold, the way towards the light.
This waking dream is more than fantasy,
The fruits of our imagining will set us free.
To know it shakes belief, replaces fear and grief,
To find what lies beneath our frail humanity.
So what does it matter?
Why should we care?
When we’re all here right now,
Like fish swimming through the air.
Flying out to Red, the long way.
Do we always make it harder on ourselves?
Flying out to Red, the long way round.
Do we always make it harder on ourselves?
Flying out to Red, the long way.
Do we always make it harder on ourselves?
Flying out to Red, the long way round.
Do we always make it harder on ourselves
To the Moon and Stars is simply gorgeous, dreamy, subtle, engaging and uplifting. That's just the way I like my music - beautiful stuff! Harvey Summers
Inspiring, Bellydance-friendly world music - if you don't find yourself shimmying and shaking to this record, there is something wrong with your rhythm bone! Harvey Summers
Great mash-up which I had the pleasure of collaborating on. I cannot describe this track sufficiently with your human mouth words! Just listen.... Harvey Summers
