Lyrics by Ben Hjertmann
This must be
This, then, must I be - - - lieve:
This, then, I leave…
This philosophy then must be within I will take before I leave with all that I
This loss must imply be - - - - lief, all
~~
my voice here - - - in
My on - - - - - - - - - ly voice, it’s here within me
on - - - - - - - - - ly, it’s with me
own and follow blindly t’ward the light It’s here beside with the pattern in mean - - - - - ing
mine. Voices insincere turn into rhymes to en-
~~
Listen less, you’ll fly soon,
List - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -less, fly
Listen, you’ll soon
Listing up to the end - - - - - less precipice, you’ll find you’re flying soon from the known
(en)-list, be - - - come less speci- - - - -fic, fly soon from
~~
Be here, beyond whomever you then dream
Be - - - - - - - - - - - - - yond ev - er then
hear, be whom you dream
Hearing into the beyond with whomev - er you inhabit then dreaming
be - - - ing, beyond hea - - - - ven then

Sun’s settling [too-deep] over red, blue, and green
To be (be)lieved (as) echoing waves’ familiar frequency so (they) seem
Some senses remade [to be], (as from) thence to be replayed [on repeat]
As (do) we, from dual self-symmetry to syzygy, so (are) we [seeds]?
~~~
Sink into these as they orbit each other … Duet, yet one origin of the light
Sink into orbit … Duet of light
~~~
Aurora made too real, designs dissolve, staining our night sky
A roar made real, signs di - - - - -sdain our sky
~~
Our auras sing askew, solar newly minted us this light
Our awe sing - - - u - - -lar, nu - - min - - ous light
