Jacob Flood - The 3 Principles of Wabi-Sabi Lyrics



Jacob Flood - The 3 Principles of Wabi-Sabi Lyrics




Craters on a pale moon
Pale skin, scarred from old wounds
First eye blind, third is narcoleptic
Views of the matrix through my second
I am the king of HalloweenTown
World's pressure - bringing' me down
Surgery marks, broken-down body
Nerves on fire, melancholy
Of a perfectionist in a world of entropy
Still trying to find identity
Body can't do soul justice
Like, clear signal, radio's busted
Enso circles, insect crawling
Cracked pencil, I'm still drawing
Mathematics, beauty, purpose
I stay searching - nothing is perfect

Feelin' moody in the music (I know)
Gotta duty to the Muses (fa sho)
'Cause their beauty is elusive (let go)
But it's movin' me to yugen (oh whoa)

Third day frost, Cold Mountain Master
I slow down and time goes faster
Youth like yesterday in mind
Knew no pain, freedom was mine
Divine, kept safe in my palace
Little buddha left home now like Alice
Sand dune, sakura bloom
But the colors fade so soon
Mark one of existence
We are here then gone in an instant, sic transit
Elephant footprint in the dirt and the elements
They change with the seasons
And the roots of flowers deepen, here's the secret
You should nourish them now, winter will return again
Because nothing is permanent

Feelin' moody in the music (I know)
Gotta duty to the Muses (fa sho)
'Cause their beauty is elusive (let go)
But it's movin' me to yugen (oh whoa)

A lantern with no fire left
In a writer's room full of spider webs
An energy emits from the author's chair
A feather with ink still there
But he's gone, underground though his words live on
Like poetry from the beyond
So many papers filled with masterpieces
But not one has been completed
No coda for his symphony
His final chapter's full of mystery
Yeah, orphan of silence is the art
'Cause words can't match full hearts
They say - when the lanterns reignite
The dead man will return to write
'Cause lights change forms and transition
But never burn out; nothing is finished

Feelin' moody in the music (I know)
Gotta duty to the Muses (fa sho)
'Cause their beauty is elusive (let go)
But it's movin' me to yugen (oh whoa)
