    Story Behind the Song
    This song was originally written for the new album, but I decided towards the end that it wasn't quite what I was going for. I've put it up on mp3.com so that people could at least hear what I spent a good deal of time on... and perhaps understand why it was several months before I uploaded anything new.

    Lyrics
    The song was originally intended to have lyrics, based off of 'The Resolute' - a poem I wrote at the time I started writing the song. I have typed them below.


    In my origin
    And my destination
    I have reached for you
    I have thrown my hands
    Around your skin, your face
    A pattern I remember
    An image I have never known

    I who pass through your eyes
    The retina and the image
    The objective light
    Here, in the origin
    The destination is the same
    And I have never known them
    As I know you right now
    And I have never known you

    How it is in time that we live
    And how it is in life that we are
    Like crossing a stream of static
    Slipping through a constant dynamic
    The unchanging ever-changing
    Life beyond stasis
    Life beyond familiar
    Where we reach out for connectivity
    The fusion of before and after
    The beauty of our destruction
    The resolute, self-collapsing
    Instant at which we break down
    Lose meaning, coherence
    And so I am without you
    And so I live within you
    Reaching through time
    To the timeless

    The original poem can be found at http://www.envyisblind.com/mind/resolute.htm
