about

This song is about the formation of life / a cell (as in the formation of amino acids and basic cell structures in lab experiments). (See coacervates/work of Alexander Oparin and de Jong)

lyrics

the opening of time
it begins with an eye
colored orange
and floating
dense
the cell
makes organelles awake,
alert
to observe their host,
a pilot ghost.
The mind,
science borne,
and logic
copes.
It's everything you see
upon
a microscope.

And people talk
of a unit cell of life
that begins with dust coalesced
and fusion to make ignite
it spins in discs, like rings,
it spins in discs like rings to find
we coalesce,
cool,
and somehow it sometimes rains,
protein shells,
electric storms,
keep it up,
keep it up.

Watershed
by The Silence Kit

Aggressive when necessary, but showing a control and self-awareness often missed in music that allows the song to penetrate to a more personal level for the listener. The Azure Sea
