Everyone Is Everyone (And Everything Is Everything)

Somehow I found myself here today
Awakened to these thoughts and feelings
Or an oceanic sense of lucid dreaming?

A strange sort of spherical sensation
With an overwhelming sense of apprehension
An emptiness that thunders out
From beyond the mind’s horizon

So far beyond our reach
Where consciousness coalesces
Like the billowing loom of thunder clouds
The streaming runs of thought go
‘Round and ’round and ’round

Till the dancing funnels of wind touch down
And the earth bows down in reverence
Lest it should be torn to pieces
And blown into oblivi-essence

And all who live will run and hide
And do what we’ve done since the dawn of time
Everyone flees from the cyclone winds of
One’s own mind

But if one day we should stand on the canyon’s edge
Peer out through the beating rain, the pounding wind
You’ll find that everyone is everyone
And everything is everything

Open up
Your hearts and minds
‘Cause I remember
Nothing

One day now
It all falls down
But love must keep on
Loving

So start the show
Here we go

Dark to light
The day from night
A roll of a mountain
A rip in the sky

Turning the dust to flesh
And ashes to breath
A pull of a muscle
A pin in the eye

An initial spark
To get this heart of mine pumping
And another
To get these feet of mine running

But sadly they’ve just taken me
To a place
Where all is devoid
Of your embrace

So baby now we’re falling
Baby now you’re falling
Baby yeah, yeah
Baby now we’re falling, baby yeah

Tripping and tumbling
Flipping and fumbling
Flowing on the rivers of sadness
That have been forever rumbling

But from dawn until now
Of all the paths that I could have gone down
Of all the valleys
That I could have been flowing through

In spite of all the chaos
And all that has come between us
How is it I still find myself
Here with you

So somehow we find ourselves here today
A feeling in this oceanic sense of lucid dreaming

A strange sort of spherical sensation
An emptiness that thunders out
From beyond the mind’s horizon

And all of us, we run and hide
Do what we’ve done since the dawn of time

Peering out through the beating rain
The pounding wind
Everyone is everyone
And everything is everything
