New Religion
Unearthing Liberation: The Tallest Man on Earth's New Religion
Lyrics
There's the dog in the neighbor's field
There's a dog in the neighbor's field
Digging for, hell, I don't know, oh
Digging without a clear purpose
Could I ever just lose myself
Questioning the ability to lose oneself
Digging for my letting go?
Searching internally for release or freedom
A man that walks with the living
A person walking among the living
And carried through his dreams at night
Experiencing dreams while asleep
The world is a wonder and here I lie
Contemplating the wonder of the world while lying down
There's a crossing for all us here
Symbolic reference to a crossing or transition for everyone
Carried over river wide, oh
Metaphorical journey over a wide river
And if I knew where your face had been
Uncertainty about the whereabouts of someone's presence
You wonder where my talents hide
Wondering about one's own hidden abilities
And if I dared to just ask you
Contemplating whether to ask a question
Oh, will we be at drinks sometime?
Asking about the possibility of meeting for drinks
The thought gets my feet on some solid ground
Finding stability or certainty in thoughts of meeting
I said, all of this time
Reflecting on the passage of time
And all this time to wonder
Having time to contemplate or speculate
And we're just hanging on a dream
Living in pursuit of a dream
Oh, we're timeless all of our prayers
Considering the timeless nature of aspirations
For new religion
Expressing a desire for a new belief system or ideology
Tell myself that the port is near
Assuring oneself of proximity to a destination
Oh, I can hear the bells alright, oh
Sensing impending change or significant events
Feed a forest to be your house
Symbolic action of sacrificing for a relationship or commitment
The young ones own the city now
The young generation taking control
If I would try to remember
Attempting to recall someone's assistance
Whoever was my wheels last night
Reflecting on someone's impact or influence
The world is a wonder and here you lie
Observing the wonder of the world in someone's presence
I said, all of this time
Reflection on the passage of time (repeated)
And all this time to wonder
Continued contemplation or speculation (repeated)
When we're just hanging on a dream
Persisting in chasing a dream (repeated)
That we're timeless all of our prayers
Reiterating the timeless nature of aspirations (repeated)
For new religion
Desiring a new belief system or ideology (repeated)
I said, all of this time
Reflecting on the passage of time (repeated)
I've just thrown anything into the fire
Discarding things thoughtlessly or recklessly
I said, all of this time
Repeating the idea of discarding without care (repeated)
I've just been anywhere between the fountain and the dime
Describing movement or actions between extremes
There's the dog in the neighbor's field
Repetition of the presence of a dog digging without purpose
Digging for, hell, I don't know
Reiterating the dog's aimless digging
Could I ever just lose myself
Questioning the ability to lose oneself (repeated)
Digging for my letting go?
Searching internally for release or freedom (repeated)
