robert wyatt - free will and testament lyrics
given free will but within certain limitations,
i cannot will myself to limitless mutations,
i cannot know what i would be if i were not me,
i can only guess me.
so when i say that i know me, how can i know that?
what kind of spider understands arachnophobia?
i have my senses and my sense of having senses.
do i guide them? or they me?
the weight of dust exceeds the weight of settled objects.
what can it mean, such gravity without a centre?
is there freedom to un-be?
is there freedom from will-to-be?
sheer momentum makes us act this way or that way.
we just invent or just -ssume a motivation.
i would disperse, be disconnected. is this possible?
what are soldiers without a foe?
be in the air, but not be air, be in the no air.
be on the loose, neither compacted nor suspended.
neither born nor left to die.
had i been free, i could have chosen not to be me.
demented forces push me madly round a treadmill.
demented forces push me madly round a treadmill.
let me off please, i am so tired.
let me off please, i am so very tired.
