lyrics

Come out into the day, lost one:
Writhing in sands;
Sweeping the shoreline;
Sweeping at daybreak.

The fragmented mind,
Painless mind.
Unintegrated one,
Indefinite one

Sole heir to the mind's decay,
Sole heir to the world and its riddles,
Sole heir to unending expanses
That are dissolution.

Endlessly in mourning for memories of the sun.
Endlessly in mourning for memories of a sister:
She fell into a deep sleep;
Never to rise again.

And I swim naked in darkness,
On the journey to become.
Yeah, I swim naked in darkness
On the journey to become.

Sole heir to the mind's decay,
Sole heir to the world and its riddles,
Sole heir to unending expanses
That are dissolution.

Once more into the fray.
Once more into the nightmare:
Terrible and brilliant;
Lush with possibility.

Wise enough to know
We suffer for nothing.
Grateful for the silent hour
That we will one day waste.

Sole heir to the mind's decay,
Sole heir to the world and its riddles,
Sole heir to unending expanses
That are dissolution.

Sosruko New Plymouth, New Zealand

The strange circumstances around Sosruko's birth fixed his lot in this world as an outsider, fated to wander from place to place, often a fool, often a stranger, knowing many guises and playing many games.
