about

Examines the feelings related to our attachment to things... people, relationships, rituals. We are creatures of habit and that can have it's own set of perils.

lyrics

Serpents and fire, gold and jade.
All of the pleasures that man has made.
All that you earn is later on paid,
To serpents and fire, and gold and jade.

Chorus:
Like the pull of the moon on tides, my heart is enslaved by this.
Like a dreamer inside a dream, my soul is enslaved by this.
Can the course of our fate be turned? Can we fly with wings unfurled?
Can the fox outsmart the hound? Can the mouse outrun the owl?

Hands and eyes, and touching souls,
Sharing our lives as our dreams get sold.
To bear all that pain; that story's quite old,
Of hands and eyes, and touching souls.

(chorus)

Beyond my ears, and in my heart,
And old sound is piercing me like a dart.
Urging me on to make a new start,
Beyond their eyes, and in my heart.

(chorus)
