Universal Sorrow

Luke De-Sciscio

Compositor: Luke Michael John De-Sciscio

Let me be the egregore for all your love and light
Gather round and insist in me perfection
A flesh for thought to exist inside
Mercurial and curious, not unlike the glistening sea

All at once a wave and an ocean
That waves its ocean wave back at me
Dressed is thine like a chapel spun in caramel
All around the tremulous dream

Capable of monstrousness and unspeakable grace

A dream before it falls over the horizon of sleep
A vast and yawning maw to hold your dreams
A semblance of a greater thing
Blood shot in my fertile mind
I had the most incredible dream

About which I remember choosing to dive
Past the ledge omniscience divides
And born and born and born
I chose my parents
Born and born
I even loved the death
And born
To a creature like the universe that with the universal sorrow wept

All at once monstrousness and with unspeakable grace

A dream before it falls over the horizon of sleep
A vast and yawning maw to hold your dreams
A semblance of a greater thing
Blood shot in my fertile mind
I had the most incredible dream

Father's father a cross
Father's mother a chain
Mother's mother a ring
Mother's father a ring
