lyrics
Talk to me;
the ghost still needs to breathe,
and sing precious melodies into the air.
Ceiling’s high,
and the devil he never came,
but he still shouts out your name,
among the missing,
the estranged,
oh, the missing,
the estranged.
Oh, he knows;
he can’t keep you satisfied,
offering delights to ease the longing.
Overripe,
listen to the children sing,
while precious offerings
are laid upon
your head and feet,
"do you love them,
because they are weak"?
Night it came,
following behind,
"I love them because they’re mine"
and there’s a ceiling,
it’s just been hung,
for a daughter and a son.

Heavenly and blissful drone music to fully surrender into the divine presence of the Godhead, The Lord along with Petra Haden's angelical voice brings us the mystical experience in this musical mantra where we're driven in celestial ecstasy and joyful wanderlust amidst the holiness of each song that compels to worship creation with the sound of the sacred spheres. Pure musical beauty to leave you gleeming in magnificent awe. josedenoche
