Killer Whale recounts a dream to Little Rabbit, highlighting their connection and mutual journey over endless time, and their goal of passing beyond. Little Rabbit expresses doubts, as her state is rather fallen and sorry at the moment.
lyrics
The mirror was clear and we passed through easily
You and me, no sunlight, no fog
One billion lives of sand brushed off our shoulders
We seemed to know each other still
My sister the silent one it’s coming from afar
Across a wasteland set to perfect order
Just past the roses, eating up the light
The end, bathed in the night
The way, lit by a black moon
I knew we were friends of the edge
steady as church bells swaying with all their might
against the chaotic din of life
Then you doubting me said brother I’ve been up early
But time keeps on moving faster
The lightning in my veins pushes toward the future
I’m trembling all the time
I’m blind to roses in a wasteland
In a ground white with bone
But be my friend of the edge
I wish we had more time
