The Mystic 04:20
To take you in the sun
 Born like the earth over years To promised lands
 We could exist on the stars, the fears beyond, A million candles burning, Far above the moon My love was born like a setting sun Pull in all the stars above Spotlight, moonlight Into the magic everywhere Living is easy with eyes closed
 And if you see what's meant to be Don't name the day or try to say Misunderstanding all you see Don't come around tonight

There's a bad moon I could never understand the wind at all To laugh, to dance The naked earth beneath us and the universe above Like tiny beings you can read their address by the moon. In the world, where only time's erased The universe reclining in your hair Gates to the stars and mystical moons If you follow you will see what's beyond reality The moon by the sea in the tiny piece of Coloured glass the sky is made of stone

about

The mystic knows that without mysticism our lives feel dull, empty, direction-less, and meaningless. The mystic is a person who is sensitive to the energies of the universe. To qualify as a mystic, one has to have had a mystical experience—or a series of mystical experiences—it really means allowing yourself to let go of your identity and just... be. Why am I here? Why are we all here? These are common questions that haunt the mystic’s mind. The mystic has the ability to see the connected strings behind every action, it does not mean that they are able to fully comprehend how the universe works and why. Because of their heightened senses, the mystic has a natural curiosity about the physical and spiritual world. The mystic relies on knowledge, language, and physical senses the same as others do; however, their intuitive perceptions offer a deeper form of insight. The mystic is guided by their own experience, rather than by leaders or society—this can often make them spiritual or even political rebels. The mystic believes they are a conduit for power, not the source—they understand their insights into the universe as a borrowed gift. The mystic understands and embraces the power of love. The mystic cannot tell you what is right and what is wrong.

The Mystic comes also as a vinyl LP 12“ in a limited edition of 6 copies, sleeve design in screen printing technique and with a 12-page booklet.
