Pools of sunlight
Pools of sorrow
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
They slither wildly, as they slip away across the universe
No matter how much it sounds like "slither while they pass", it's really "slither wildly, as" , I promise you!
Thoughts meow, they're like an endless wind inside a litter box
Thoughts meander like an endless wind inside a letter box
Trying to lose, baby
Jai Guru Deva
