Third Eye Live Lyrics

    Think for yourself. Question authority. Throughout human history as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are or where we are going in this ocean of chance, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds their view of reality.
    To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself.

    Dreaming of that face again
    It's bright and blue and shimmering
    Grinning wide
    And comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes

    On my back and tumbling
    Down that hole and back again
    Rising up
    And wiping the webs and the dew from my withered eye

    In...out...in...out

    A child's rhyme stuck in my head
    It said that life is but a dream
    I've spent so many years in question
    To find I've known this all along

    So good to see you
    I've missed you so much
    So glad it's over
    I've missed you so much
    Came out to watch you play
    Why are you running away?

    Shrouding all the ground around me
    Is this holy crow above me
    Black as holes within a memory
    And blue as our new second sun
    I stick my hand into his shadow
    To pull the pieces from the sand
    Which I attempt to reassemble
    To see just who I might have been
    I do not recognize the vessel,
    But the eyes seem so familiar
    Like phosphorescent desert buttons
    Singing on familiar song...

    So good to see you
    I've missed you so much
    So glad it's over
    I've missed you so much
    Came out to watch you play
    Why are you running away?

    Prying open my third eye
    So good to see you once again
    I thought that you were hiding
    And you thought that I had run away
    Chasing the tail of dogma
    I opened my eye and there we were

    So good to see you once again
    I thought that you were hiding from me
    And you thought that I had run away
    Chasing a trail of smoke and reason

    Prying open my third eye
