Avey Tare – Coral Lords lyrics

[Colin Foord]
"Corals were the first timekeepers of Planet Earth. For more than half a billion years, their internal clocks have been synchronized with the sun and the moon. However, it would take life several hundred million years of further evolution before finally crawling out of from beneath the liquid lens of the ocean and into the open air where it would develop the consciousness necessary to ask the question, then the intelligence needed to invent the technology to empirically measure its objective reality. Thus, the purpose of life is to quantify the nature of the cosmos itself. The development of symbiosis between coral and humankind appears as a harbinger for the final stages of life on earth. Our ouroboros is nearly complete."

I pray deep like Buddha
But I don't understand him
More water in my coffee
Than there is on dry land

They speak to the coral
Stories they can't tell
Countries caught on fire
Bodies blown around

Just like continuous breathing
Very sweet sleep not a violent night
Yeah but how fast she can change and swell
Yeah she's so heavy she's a lover
And I sure hope she'll last my life
Lost in the rumbling of the foaming curl

So why in the world would I fight you?
Getting pulled down can enlighten you
Struggle bounds if it frightens you
Search for the ground it's like being here today

I pray deep like Buddha
Say that I'm a good man
More water in my coffee
Than there is on dry land


So why in the world would I fight you?
Getting pulled down can enlighten you
Struggle bounds if it frightens you
Search for the ground it's like being here today

I pray deep like Buddha
But I don't understand it
More water in my coffee
Than there is on dry land

"Cause remember, you've been floating in water. So Mother Nature has been coded with this stuff."

I pray deep like Buddha
Say that I'm a good man
I pray deep like Buddha
Say that I'm a good man
