Samarkand

Turn to the living, turn to the good things
You know life happens while you're awake
Avoid the haunted streets of behavior,
Drink the blissful stillness of lakes

You wear the truth like it's a precious collar
You bend the iron while it is still hot
You pay with puns and you don't use a dollar
You give the people back what you've got

You seek for silence, you don't look for action
What is unsaid and undone are the keys
Things said in passing cause shitstorm reactions
You don't know why but simply it is, you are free, you really be

Shutter the mirrors, fight with the demons
Struggling, enduring, replaying the game
Keep to yourself as you anchor in silence
Divest yourself of your mind and your name

Body as body and feeling as feeling
You can't deny it, there is nothing more
No I or me or myself as a nametag
At least your breaking the bark to the core

You seek for silence, you don't look for action
What is unsaid and undone are the keys
Things said in passing cause shitstorm reactions
You don't know why but simply it is, you are free, you really be

Turn to the living, turn to the good things
You know life happens while you're awake
Avoid the haunted streets of behavior,
Drink the blissful stillness of lakes

You wear the truth like it's a precious collar
You bend the iron while it is still hot
You pay with puns and you don't use a dollar
You give the people back what you've got

You seek for silence, you don't look for action
What is unsaid and undone are the keys
Things said in passing cause shitstorm reactions
You don't know why but simply it is, you are free, you really be
