crash test dummies - sacred alphabet lyrics

Loading...

[refrain]
in the beginning was not the word, not yet
there was no sacred alphabet
no subject, object, verb or tense
sound had not been enslaved to sense

[verse 1]
the void was neither dark nor deep
it did not, like some giant, sleep
in cosmic unawareness, coiled
undreaming of a world unspoiled
[verse 2]
no melody did gently wake
this giant, nor did his soul take
the shape of song heard in his dreams
so making real what merely seems

[bridge]
instead, an undivided howl
a random, preternatural vowel
no beauty, truth or goodness here
no sin, no shame, no guilt nor fear

[refrain]
there was no sacred alphabet
in the beginning was not the word, not yet
