about

by John Clay Gonzalez with words by Perry Maddox

lyrics

An edge, a border, a skin, a seam, starin’.
The moon is swelling full as a dripping yellow tomato.
The sensual joy of life and the sufferin’.
Your body falls away and you become the sound.

The edge between the streetlight and the dark starin’.
Orion rises early in the mornin’, starin’,
And oh, the land, the land it breathes and pulls us in.
The dogs are still, the crickets rest their ancient song.

An edge, a border, a skin, a seam, starin'.
An edge, an openin’ a beyond, starin’.

The world recedes, falls down the sky and pulls us in,
Two vultures spread their wings to the morning sun, to the morning sun, to the sun.
