gruf - awakenings lyrics
[verse one]
i awoke to the sound of rushing water
brushing off the remains of sleep like dry leaves in the plush of autumn
almost forgot the dream from where i was so recently engaged
as members of my house so ritualistic began their days
so once -ssured i could rest on my day off
an inner smile guided me back to that necessary nod off
and once again i became a bottle nose that played
riding amid the waves in a graceful oceanic display
on an emotional plain, more colorful than crayons
emitting sounds of joy as well as sounds of navigation
using echo locations, similar to that of winged mammalians
searching for some food i ran into a sea reptilian
who said she had mind power, taught to her by the anunaci
to speak to my grandfather with technique like a walkie talkie
of what she was talking i knew nothing about of course
but as she spoke i felt vibrations indicating a greater source
then i ever experienced
curious, i urged her to continue
learning of this water world i thought i knew
and matters of my destiny presenting these thoughts anew
the last thing she said was, “do not fear death”
cause it would only take me through
do not fear death? what?
[verse two]
then suddenly as if on queue a dark cloud was moving near me
and the ancient ones eyes grew wide and i knew that i must hurry
moving quickly, i hardly had enough time to gasp
as i glanced back, the sight of a fading turtle was my last
swallowed by the cloud though i could still feel her presence
trying to figure out what it all meant, seemed so senseless
but endless the ocean was not so i knew this thing i’d see again
“do not fear death” she said
inside my soul those words would never end
they never end
[verse three]
then i awoke to the sound of careless chatter
as the clock radio beside my bed took a dagger to my subconscious
tearing dreams to shreds, i shook my head trying to remember what adventures
i partook and why it felt like something entered
my heart and soul like i had shared my deepest secrets
but i just couldn’t recall where i’d gone or what i’d seen
then reaching for the radio switch, my heart skipped a beat
when the words “ocean tanker” pulled my ear into it’s speech
on a coral reef it seems a tanker ship got caught while cruising
damaged it’s hull and poured from it a chemical solution
a deadly pollution not intended for consumption
but into the living water poured this dark cloud of obstruction
how strange it felt for me to feel so deeply affected
even though a love for earth i had already accepted
i couldn’t help but feel a pain more sharply directed
marking some unexpected connection
the words selected were “do not fear death”
it was an entrance to my memory
“do not fear death”
it was an exit for an ent-ty
“do not fear death”
the words made sense and yet they didn’t
“do not fear death” she said
[sample]
“i had a crazy little dream, when i woke up i found”
