about

the animals are at a stage in their consciousness where they begin to ask big questions about their state of being: how does something this mysterious seem to simply evolve overnight? is this the work of some divine power, or some indifferent force? is it just a matter of time before we, the non-human animals, inflict the same degree & kind of damage they, the humans, have on the earth, as a direct result of the development of this strange phenomenon?

lyrics

it was a cosmic leap -
at first felt like a dream,
but slowly found it to be true.

gave it some time to set.
lent it a name,
& let nature do all the rest for you.

but was it just a matter of time
before it left your soul behind?

then our heads began to grow;
through several cycles - sun & snow -
witnessed, first hand, history repeat.

was this an accident,
or brought about by careful hands -
another chance to get it right?

or is it just a matter of time
before this spark spreads like a wildfire?
