lyrics

I will follow you.
Sunrise over Mount Kailash,
I will take my time painting every detail that we may receive.

I follow you.
The sun is a beating drum,
it carries the Chairman's will to my canvas and my mind.

I have followed you.
Sunset behind metal walls, my warmth is truth.
I will paint for you.

I follow Imagination. I follow Science as it suits me.
The weight of the night sky and the expanding mysteries it holds is precisely heavy enough to counter balance the pressure of vitality beneath our skins.
As we paint, we furtively imbibe dark matter and invent our future. In our voices string theories coalesce, sculpting afterlives of our ancestors.

And somehow within the stunning fray, at times I feel empty.
