written while “being in light”, up on the big eucalyptus treehouse,
above the bench, right by the alexander river.
the song is about the sin of opening your eyes to see the truth
that belongs to all human beings alike.
lyrics
by the river where i lie
up the treehouse getting high
and the times i had never known before disappear
from the lonely path of fear
and the color's so vivid
i could die in this state
hangin out at ray's original heaven's gate
waiting for the sun to light me back to earth
i could live in any body any god would give
we are all flowers in the field of time
you are the reason i'm in light
left the window at dawn
fly so far into the seventh house
and she's bringing me back the heart of life
i give in
flowing down the road of sin and everything
the sin that brings back your child eyes
you are the reason i'm in light
