Invocate
Lyrics
Before it was, it never was The jukebox plays before it’s pushed A look, a glance, another chance The song repeats-an ancient dance
Dominos fall in all directions The window sees its own reflections The clock unwinds its second hand We march in time without a band
It echoes in the act of trying The shape is formed by what relays We are the tune that hums itself The thread in knots as it obeys
Each beginning has beginnings And every ending still pretends Nothing ever really starts It only loops, then shifts and bends The road behind is ever long The path ahead pretends to end And we who choose to wander Trace the shape we apprehend
Not cause, not fate and not effect The mirror breaks but still reflects I move before I make the choice The echo carves, it gives a voice
It echoes in the act of trying The shape is formed by what relays We are the tune that hums itself The thread in knots as it obeys
Each beginning has beginnings And every ending still pretends Nothing ever really starts It only loops, then shifts and bends The road behind is ever long The path ahead pretends to end And we who choose to wander Trace the shape we apprehend
