lyrics

Where one can't speak
One must be silent
But what does it mean
When the mind can't be quiet?

I tried to find a new language
Because I didn't know
What anything meant
A new way to express
Something so painfully familiar
Yet so far from gaining commiserations

New roots in old hard soil
Planted as deftly as
Yard sale junk on a dying lawn
A flea market for
Some cosmic cache of dusty motion
Light years away from being understood

Where one can't speak
One must be silent
But what does it mean
When the mind can't be quiet?
Where one can't speak...
What does it mean...

Still I can't find a new language
For what simply can't be expressed
So my body is the language
And it all sounds so good
And it all looks so good
And it all feels so good
In our sphere
In our time
In this place
Where body is the language
Body is the language

Where one can't speak
One must be silent
But what does it mean
When the mind can't be quiet?
Where one can't speak...
"In his motion like an angel sings"
What does it mean...

My planted words died choking on the vine
Broken stalks failed reaching up to you
I look up at you
(I'll look up for you)
With shut mouth, open eyes:
I'll speak thoughts to you
(Precious thoughts to you)
Things that can't be said
Without
Body as language
Things that can't be read
Unless
Body is language

Where one can't speak
One must be silent
But what does it mean
When the mind can't be quiet?
Where one can't speak...
"In his motion like an angel sings"
What does it mean...
"In our motion like the angels sing"
