Little Rabbit is reunited with Killer Whale, and they take a pilgrimage to her home planet to view the ancient monuments, their stories now forgotten. They play among vague memories that pull them down like stones in the water where they catch their reflections, and find bliss in the moment where past and future ripple away.
lyrics
Oh, pilgrims, take a look around
Don’t you remember how it used to be?
You’re having a good time walking the highway lines
They go on forever now
You’ll never see the end
Ash planet,
Home to no one
You here with me, remembering
Visceral highway scene, near the end of the world
How I loved everything, except being here inside of me
Dust bunny, volcano
Braving the landlocked life for a moment
Touching outside, colors
Rise and sway, rotate and wade
Arms raised, you and me
In Heaven, the forgotten place
In a pool of water
The two of us flashing back at us
We sink below, heavy boats
Unsound dragging each other down
Shivering ‘neath the undulating waves
We bob and stray
Love was the rise of the full moon, the tide coming in toward the unknown,
Falling back again
Buried in your waves, killer!
But I was above you, out of breath, I left you there alone
The end of my road
The end of my road, so quiet and still
When past and future strike they crumble
We can find the way appear there soft and clear
A mirror soft and clear
Oh pilgrims, take a look around
Don’t you remember how it used to be?
Rise and sway, rotate away
In heaven, The forgotten place
Oh, heaven!
