Lyrics:

Try to read a message in an artichoke
Gripped between my palms
Fingers prickle pluck
Spiral cone wrapped around my ancestors
Murmuring indistinct
Seeking clarity
Excavate the source

Up in the opaque firmament
Silent lightning cracks the eggshell sky –
Bloodshot eye

Stepping very careful between lilypads
Seek a clearer path
Options left behind
Pond is quivering like gelatin, fundamental quake
Swelling heartbeat choir
Hear the answer rise
Though the question’s sunk

Up in the opaque firmament
Silent lightning cracks the eggshell sky –
Bloodshot eye

The moon has set, the stars arrayed
In clots and splats and dribbled whorls
With no ordering: the song isn’t over yet…
