Nothing is Everything
When you lie on the floor
I can see clearly
For the air is much lighter
When your down, down below
The freedom of feeling
It's down by the willows
That's where you'll find
All the time that's been crusting
Down on the floor of the ocean
Threaded and golden, silver and dark
Millions of feelings down by the ark
Where oysters and lobsters and scallops too
Try to find feeling far away from the moon
They search low, crevices largely
For beauty in feeling and never know why
The sun keeps on beaming
Destroying the air
That helps us all breathe
'Cuz we know nobody's there
So we lay down
Tired
Feeling like angels
Knowing we're higher
Just 'cuz we're down here
But out there
Life's stronger
It's moving at millions
Of lightyears, pushing us down
And now that we're down here
We might think we've found it
But find out that
Resisting
Is what makes us here.
