What is music? What is it's purpose? Why am I blessed and damned with the ability to hear colour and see sound? I do so because that is how I was born. It's that simple, and I make no claims to greatness, the only thing I claim to love is my own work. I have been given a gift...the gift of a glimpse of creation, and the ability to show it to my audience. A chance to say...HERE IT IS!!! ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL? And it's so simple. Art begins and ends with the artist and his audience, and the stage of my life that included the INFINITY recordings ends with this EP. These demos were the scattered remains of the record, and I meant for them to be much more complete than how they ended up on this disc, but I am exhausted and have no money to finish them the way they should be heard. I hope you enjoy them none the less, and I'll see you very soon in a new stage of life that offers all new music...
Peace, love, and music...
Devin and crew.
Running beyond the speed of sound
Calling, beyond the speed of sound
Say you love me, say you love yourself
Say you need me, say you care
Say you want me, say you want yourself
Say you want to be with me
Well, christeen, that's all I ask of you
Falling, into the open doorway
Loving, what anyone else would loathe here
Say you're with me, say you're with yourself
Say you're lonely, say you care
Say you warned me, say you warned yourself
Say you want to be with me
Well, christeen, that's all I ask of you
Are you feeling OK?
Are you feeling so much pain?
That never goes away
Oh, we know
And we're feeling so much better than before
What's more,
Is that feeling isn't failing anymore
Everything is on tonight
Even in the morning light
Everything is finalized
Even if it's just a new reminder
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait...
All right, all right , all right, already!
I'll wait, for the time is here
I'll wait for the Christ to hear
Wait for the time, wait for the time...
Feeling older, feeling lonely?
...please don't compromise.
Om, Om-world is home
what are you trying to do with your life?
All that we're trying to do in this life is go home...
om,,,om,,,om,,,om,,,
what have we done everybody?
I know why, and where the water flows...
but I don't remember anything at all
I sit in the mountain, sit in the mountain, alone...
sit in the mountain, I know, I know,
'cause I've been there before...
Stay awhile, and let the feeling go...
stay...stay...don't remember anything today
sit in the mountain, sit in the mountain
I know, I know, cause we've been here before
and they say you're out of your mind
and everything is just fine
you say you don't want to use me,
so lose me, lose me...
<star child rise>
Star-child rise!
star-child rise!!!
so much beauty, keep strong and focussed, with god
among
us, forever we
stand!
(wake-up, wake-up!!!)
<welcome home>
Welcome...welcome home, god knows all...god knows all...
KEEP TO THE RIGHT!!! KEEP TO THE LEFT!!!
oh, it feels so good!
<metamorph>
black and white, back and forth
(praise god, praise god)
<infinite waltz>
Welcome home, ladies and gentlemen!
Believe me when they say...forget it, believe...
I need no-one, I need nobody but me...
I look at the love load...
I look at the love load, on me...
I need no one, nobody, no one, I need no one...
no one, no one, no one...
