about

This song is an atmospheric journey through a mystical experience, inspired by themes found in the world's different traditions - from Sufism to Hinduism and other forms of mysticism. It explores the boundry or bridge (Isthmus) between the world of appearance and the "other" world, although the lyrics also express how it is "all the same".

The arrangement is essentially one of alternative rock, but with more unusual instrumental accompaniment such as the Middle Eastern Oud (lute) and Armenian Duduk (wind instrument).

lyrics

Feeling with our eyes
beauty of the world
Wandering through our home
the peace is there

Moments when I am gone
bring me close to you
Necessary Being, too
and life goes on

Balancing between the lines
Isthmus to the earth
Naked is the other side
but all the same

The life in all is you
The life in all is you
All life is you
All life is you
