It is said that there is no art, only artists. Here, life presents its counter-argument.
lyrics
Dust in the wineglass
Build a little galaxy
Brew a small infinity inside your Cabernet
Rice in the stained glass
Colour of a field in flood
Shatter in mosaic blood to pave the farmer's way
CHORUS
Chaos weave your magic fine
Paint by chance and not design
Work your art when falling stars align
Blue jay in a sky form
Ride on as the Pharaoh's daughter
Clouds beneath your wheels and water drinking in the light
Pollen in a rainstorm
Swish and billow, swirl and eddy
Brush and palette at the ready, paint a drunken starry night
CHORUS
Ghost of a sipped espresso
Grounds in earth's ceramic showing
Gather in a river flowing to a forest lake
Early evening shadow
Rule a perfect line of shading
Hip to shoulder bifurcating walls of stone opaque
CHORUS
BRIDGE
And peering from the hinges
Scuffed and smudged with peeling paint
Of the cupboard in your kitchen
Is the vision of a saint
CHORUS x 2
