lyrics

The end of the beginning
Begins with no end
No gravity on this path
No ink in this pen
Existence and persistence
Ruled by mechanations
Ethereal trees in a
Stream of emulations

CHORUS
There's a diamond in the honey
In the dandelion's mouth
Invisible to the senses
Until someone pulls it out

Leaning against suns and
Crying in the gloom
Seeking in the many the
One eternal truth
Galaxies spin dervishes in
Hurricane whirl
Where is found the mind
Behind the world

(3rd verse same as the 3rd)
To wonder of wonders
No other may invent
Dust displays fear only
Love will relent
Twist the dial, crack the code
Turn the key and lock
One second of love is
Eternal Paradox

Laughing in sorrow in
Groves Gethsemane
Leading us away
From our enemy
Nothing's the smallest part of
Creation entire
In this Gardenverse your
Eternal Empire

FINAL CHORUS
In the dandelion's mouth we
Encounter father and reason
In your quiet words
Is the one thing to believe in

The end of the beginning
Begins with no end
