about

a gentle swing

lyrics

I'm at ease on the trapeze where I'm hung
head down by the bottom rung
with my feet in the sky
the way I like it
I blame it on the Archons
on a mess of less than perfect Gods
who made the rules here
so confusing
the trade we make to be here
to see it all but never too clear
and this vessel won't last
it's breaking down fast
thus in the world but not of it
neither below nor above it
I'm inverted
severe mercy

do what you will
that's the whole Law
look what's been wasted
and wrought
without love all your works
will come to naught

out to 82 AU and more
I'm resolved to knock on every door
I came to 7 gates
but they made me wait
unless you show the sign
you cannot pass this line
but I say brothers let me through
I've got things to do beyond this

do what you will
that's the whole Law
look what's been wasted
and wrought
without love all your works
will come to naught
and the only true possessions
they can't be bought
they can't be bought...
