Living inside the shell Songtext / Lyric

Komponist: Yoko Kanno
Sänger: Steve Conte Roaming inbetween the worlds of sleep and awake.
Seems so far away from where I've been and untrue but unafraid.
Intrusting - my soul - I know I must be taken to
see the world that is not so far from now

Imaginations come and sweep the shores of my mind.
Letting it be, visions pass, and emotions arise.
Letting them go, and beyond are doors I've never seen, opening one by one.

(Wake up and show the light, wake up, the time is right)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me.
Look inside, see the light now ever holding you.
All the truth is all you need to make of your reality,
it's right here.
Look deep within your shell

Finding out a galaxy of planets and stars within me.
Listening to each of them, singing the same silent melody.
I've never seen such beauty in possibility.
No speck of doubt or fear.

(Wake up and show the light, wake up, the time is right)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me.
I see inside, see the light now ever holding me.
All the truth, all I need to make of this reality,
it's beauty within the shell

(Wake up and show the light, wake up, the time is right)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me.
I see inside, see the light now ever holding me.
All the truth, all I need to make of this reality,
it's inside,
right here within this shell

The sandglass starts for another time's beginning
from within
Cotton fields, mama's arms are gently unfolding me into the new...

(Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right)
[Reading]
Here from behind my sight, my thoughts, my mind,
show from the light.
The time is right.
And from the depth within show the balance,
of outer and inner harmony.
Mind and heart, soul and spirit undivided.
Here's where the true strength and beauty lies.
We'll see this before us, with our own eyes.
We'll see, with our own eyes... LOVE

(Wake up and show the light, wake up the time is right)
I hear a voice, hear a voice calling out to me.
I see inside, see the light now ever holding me.
All the truth, all I need to make of this reality,
it's beauty within the shell...
