“Even the distance feels so near
All for the love of you.”
The Mask and Mirror (1994), The Mystic's Dream
Context: And so it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
And now I feel you move
Every breath is full
So it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
Even the distance feels so near
All for the love of you.

Pull the blinds and change their minds”

Red like jungle burning bright
Those who feel me near
Pull the blinds and change their minds.
