Lyrics
See the spiralling towers
Observing tall structures that are spiraling upwards
aging, yellowing with dust
Those structures are becoming old and discolored due to accumulating dust
As my footsteps leave the pavement
Leaving the established path as I walk
as the human race fall away from me
Feeling disconnected from humanity, as if they are distancing themselves from me
Wonderful moments of gazing
Experiencing wonderful moments of contemplation
(at stars, upon clouds, on the grass)
Reflecting on stars, clouds, and nature while in a state of peace
quiet hours of burning light that fades with us
Enjoying quiet moments of brightness that diminish as time passes
The cosmos and chaos within
Recognizing the vastness and disorder within the universe
(the melodies and maladies without)
Acknowledging the internal conflicts (melodies) and external issues (maladies)
is this coil out of control?
Questioning if this situation is spinning out of control
It's all here
Everything significant or essential is present
right here
Emphasizing the immediacy or presence of everything needed
Are we ever going to see,
Expressing uncertainty about the possibility of seeing beyond current limited perceptions
(see beyond these sepia tones)
Hoping to move past the current faded or aged view of life
The amber of summer reinforced by time gone by
Describing the nostalgic quality of summer, strengthened by the passage of time
The greatest thing of all of this is I'm
Realizing the most significant aspect is coincidentally being present
(I just happened by, that faithful day)
Feeling fortunate to have stumbled upon a fateful moment
so past the chemotherapy, I remember that day
Reflecting beyond a past struggle with chemotherapy to recall a particular day
The battles lost and won
Remembering both victories and defeats in life's struggles
the champagne and oysters gone
Recalling luxurious moments that are now in the past
and in case we should ever forget
Ensuring that these memories are preserved and not forgotten
it's all right here
Reinforcing that everything significant is captured in these recorded memories
caught on warm tape
Highlighting the preservation of these memories on warm tape, symbolizing their emotional warmth
