    [Stu Mackenzie]
    Yeah, yeah, yeah...
    And to my loved ones, who navigate the current of life and who, occasionally or regularly, feel rudderless in the river:

    [Joey Walker]
    In this long night, there is no end
    Deep dominion
    Father be my friend
    I stand on the shoulders of mothers long dead
    Singing their stories

    [Stu Mackenzie]
    Life is but an eddy
    So be a leaf in a stream
    Eternally we return to cycle through the song we learnt

    [Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
    I would say don't be a musician, my son
    Be a doctor, lawyer, or a stand up citizen
    People on the street would stop and ask me if I'm proud
    But I'm not proud
    You did it yourself; I wasn't around

    [Joey Walker]
    But time is pregnant with the past
    With the knowledge that they lost
    Time is eating its last meal
    If they listened, could they heal?

    [Stu Mackenzie]
    Yeah, yeah, yeah...
    And though I cannot hold you, you will know my presence by virtue of the wind
    You know your daddy never knew what he was doing
    It's all love
    I love you

    [Ambrose Kenny-Smith]
    I am wind
    I am rain
    I am photon
    I am wave
    I am wind
    I am rain
    I am photon
    I am wave
    I am love
    Trauma pain
    Reincarnate hurricane
    I have sinned
    Fanned the flames
    Knocking on the pearly gates
