Lyrics

The ocean breeze out looking for grace, the centuries written all over its face
A welcoming hand that pulls you in and recognises all the sin
Way up high, you hear a voice, it whispers and you've got no choice
Walking in Cascade

Every town has its players every town has its law
See the raging point of the things you've done before
And everyone picks up a broomstick and flies away
Learns to fight another day

See the old man pick up his ragged bag of tricks
And follow all the men that have gone there
He sees them through a poets' eyes
And realising that nothing lies

When You 're walking in cascade
There 's never time to make decisions
When You 're walking in cascade
You don 't refer to illusion

See the scholar bend his knee to meet the mighty word come down
And everything he's ever learned
Is scattered on the ground
There 's a place we're heading for

And everyone knows where to find the door
When You 're walking in cascade, you're never alone

The robber takes arms against his friends and cites the reason that never ends
Looks deep inside him as he's never done before and cries and cries and cries

When You 're walking in cascade
There 's never time to make decisions
When You 're walking in cascade
You don 't refer to illusion

Walking in cascade...take all the things you've every learned

Notes
This deals primarily with self-awareness or spiritual awakening in many guises. It was composed as a 'stream of conciousness' piece i.e. I sang the words in as I made them up and reviewed the content after. The overall sound of the words and the content made a lot of sense to me then and gave an overall shape to the CD, on which there are many examples of mysticism (Flight 19,Winter etc.) and introversion (The Night & The Devil, Owning Up)
