The Book Of Love

Oisin Hendrix Oisin Hendrix

Much further back in time then even time can bet to know
A planet in the distances of space was known as home
To a manifold of beings all intelligent in form
Who’s entire living planet would communicate as one

The beings were of eight divides no better in each way
But each would do its part to guide their planet into space
As fire beings baked the earthly people into clay
People made of time and space would form them day by day

Water brought the planet peace a fluid easy kind
Air would filter through the cracks and whistle over time
Then beings of pure light would then illuminate the earth
As beings made of holy sound would herald in the universe

The planet hung in space between the 9th and 7th verse
Between the realms of action and perception in the linear
These beings hung in space without a coil, corpse or form
But lived to till the progress of the earthly bodied ones

In turn the earthly bodies would give reverence and song
And use their earthly bodies to give elements a home
So beings of pure light would inside them make them strong
Or time would feed upon them and turn warm hearts into stone

Do you remember in the time before we died
When you and I made love beside a nebular of light
And slipped into the distance to be married off
As lovers with no name of burning ice and liquid flame

Do you recall there in the place where we once met?
That’s long destroyed and hasn’t been discovered yet
But some day soon will be returning to the planet
With no name where someone said we all once came from

Do you recall there where our fire was given flesh
And moulded into form so that we never could forget
Before we crash the world into the Sun?
We were living with our brother in a strange dimension

Do you recall there in the place where we were made
And love was given form and all our promises had names
You looked in the black holes of my eyes and
Promised you would write the book of love with me

The planet and its people were in blissful harmony
The universe responding to their wicked energy
And pushing them to rowling through the great black sky
With a manifest of energy that group it did not die

But orbiting the galaxy an ancient evil sword
50 million eons since it's ugly death had roared
A star in the sky to the beings of the world
Grew with the evolution that they couldn’t deny

The home planet that they knew and loved
Was soon to be destroyed by another from above
And so the manyfold beings all connected as one
Build a great crystal ship to get everybody off

The ship consumed the earth 1000 miles high
A giant formed of stone filled with these elemental kind
But as they all prepared to drive their planet into space
The scientist came in with a sad look up on his face, and he said

We can travel through space
We can travel through time
We can travel right through mater and the minds
I pushed through to the beautiful blue
But I don’t know what will happen

When we slip through the void

We can lift up the veil and tune in
Put the needle on the wax when time begins
And then swim through the beautiful blue
But I don’t know what will happen

When we slip through the void

Slipping through the cracks of light and matter first
We pushed with sonic hyperdrive into the sonic verse
Then 1000 screams resounded when we hit the starburst
For the people of pure light and sound. They rippled and dispersed

We slipped into the sixth and all the fire lost its form
Melting into rivers burning cracks throughout the stone
The water beings disappeared in rippled clouds of steam
The air was choked into the sky the earth stood still

Then settled into orbit around a warm and distant Sun
The planet made a call to the fortunate ones
The elements responded and the mountain howled
But the screams of two others seemed to drown them all out

Two beings water fire and flesh
Were stuck outside the dimensional crest
Suspended in their bodies living physical lives
They had forgotten all the beings of the ninth dimension

Armed with nothing but a memory of time
A thirst for air and water and a love of earth and fire
The guidance of sound and the light surrounding
But no recognition of the spirits around them

The earth called out to them and begged them to return
But stock beyond the veil all that fire can do is burn
But now every now and then when love is born
They whisper in their ear and sing to their other one

Do you remember in the time before we died
When you and I made love beside a nebular of light
And slipped into the distance to be married off
As lovers with no name of burning ice and liquid flame

Do you recall there in the place that we once met?
That’s long destroyed and hasn’t been discovered yet
But some day soon we'll be returning to the planet
With no name where someone said we all once came from

Do you recall there where our fire was given flesh
And moulded into form so that we never could forget
Before we crash the world into the Sun
We were living with our brother in a strange dimension

Do you recall there in the place where we were made
When love was given form and all our promises had names
You looked in the black holes of my eyes and
Promised you would write the book of love with me

I remember the earth
I remember the hills
I recall the tornado and the storms
I further saw in the beautiful Moon
But I don't remember nothing, when I look at the void

I remember the flames
I remember the hills
I recall the tornado and the fire tides
I further saw in the beautiful Moon
But I can't shake this feeling, when I look at the void

Something pushing me on
Something calling me in
Steping just behind the mirror on the blind side
Dreams come from the beautiful Moon
But I don't know what's the message, that slips out from the void

Something may be forgot
Something may be distraught
I remember there were colours in the night sky
This town has a beautiful view
But I can't help to think what could happen, if we slip through the void

Naked fire can burn forever, live forever and learn forever
It’s always hot and it scars forever, flickers in your heart forever
Pure water can flow forever, run forever and know forever
It will always rain on our souls together, run through our veins forever

And this earth will wait forever and silently rotate forever
The breeze will always change forever, the winds will always carry us home
But
Tender flesh will age and whither with sickness till it dies forever
Well, this live is fuelled by love but no one could love life forever
