All Your Ancestors Have Understood And Stand Calmly Awaiting

from Metamorphosis III : Our Ever Present Psychedelic Future by Jeremy Bursich

lyrics

In a dark purple room
Silhouettes of your family surround you
Feel comfort in the pain
They're something of the same
Starting with a name you won't say
And no one did the dishes
And no one mopped the floor or cleaned the cobwebs
It doesn't matter anymore
In the ghost of a home
You can't remember

Lose your mind
You will find
All you need
Underneath

In a dark purple room
The tapestry unfolding all around you
They call you by your name
It isn't quite the same
As you remember
You do not speak at all
But seek to understand what you have summoned
This voice is not a ghost
But the long forgotten hallway
You belong to

Lose your mind
You will find
All you need
Underneath

The future is the present is the past
Embrace the love and give back
Every morsel of humanity
Left in your tired bones
Time is all around us
It continues to confound us
But it's malleable like any other
Metal on this mortal plane
Walk through the beauty of the rose
And find inside a light that glows
That light also resides inside of
You and I and you and I and
You don't keep your lanterns empty
Hold your light up gently
In the chaos of the universe
You'll surely find your way
