lyrics
Searching For The Divine (K Langley)
She came like water – she never asked your name
She didn’t try to love you – she’s the keeper of the flame
Is she your mother
Is she your lover
Is she your shame
Do you know her name
Following a circle in time
She traces her name on your forehead
You’ll remember when you cry in the night looking for her
She carries no shame – only a love of all she sees
And she carries it well
You could learn from her passion and from her pain
Shining like a diamond, never shading her face from your gaze
For why should she
For why should see
Chains of anger on your mind and on your tongue
The seal of forgiveness is in the web she has spun
She’s looking for the divine in everything
And if you meet her eyes, you will see yourself
And if you meet her eyes, you will see yourself
She came like water – she never asked your name
She didn’t try to love you – she’s the keeper of the flame
Is she your mother
Is she your lover
Is she your shame
Do you know her name
Following a circle in time
She traces her name on your forehead
You’ll remember when you cry in the night looking for her
She carries no shame – only a love of all she sees
And she carries it well
You could learn from her passion and from her pain
Shining like a diamond, never shading her face from your gaze
For why should she
For why should see
Chains of anger on your mind and on your tongue
The seal of forgiveness is in the web she has spun
She’s looking for the divine in everything
And if you meet her eyes, you will see yourself
And if you meet her eyes, you will see yourself

about
BABAL England, UK
One speaks and a thousand misunderstand
where millions are silent and a thunderous applause erupts
where chatter
overwhelms humility and gossip destroys worlds
the tongues wag, the ears flap and the mind creates a wall
everything has been said but no one has understood
talking with conviction and concluding that knowledge is easy and effects a multitude of expanding smokescreens around truth
