Taken 05:09
sometimes I feel undone in your present touch taste the Sun when all your high words dissolve sometimes I can't release or move the waters touch in the River of God, watch me drown [can we ever stop trying now (3x), just be real?] In the Sun I saw your only smile wake the dead like those floating downstream Can we ever stop trying now? (3x) just unfold

when I come down from the Mountain I'm gonna take the Sword in hand tasting none but the fountain in reverence to this old land Blue, blue is the my friends all stand with hands adjoined open as the sky the Mountain keeps her bones aligned When I wake up in my own skin I thank the skin for holding me the best is all we are given the body of the Yak will bleed Blue, blue is the Way of placing all the stones in line care-free as the sky the Mountain leaves her blood behind Come and walk with me now and in the resonant Sound I will see you alone then the loneliest cloud never gives the Mountain a home always through the breeze I will hear you When I come down from the Mountain I'm gonna lay that burden down every love which is given comes with three more lost, One found Blue, blue is the day the way your ice broke gently painted as the sky the Way is given thoroughly

By Moonlight 04:09
let go to the waves you find taking you over now buried in this ocean you'll find the sweetest thing and I can see your warrior bright keep on swimming, swimming, swimming in the field now we're always woven as they will find chosen by your own winding way you sweet Grace and I can see you burning bright and strong
4.
I wanna see your eyes closed wait for the fall, come around I wanna taste the air now won't you come over me I wanna live the Truth now let's keep it free I wanna keep my eyes closed speak to the trees

about

Recorded while travelling in India, Nepal, and Thailand. The result of being Taken by the experience of Life, embracing the force of Death, and letting go into the authentic Joy of the moment... Fierce embodiment of willingness to be taken by all that comes my way: Beauty, Pain, Grief, and the Mind-Blowing Mystery of the Way
