What we like
- The melodic music captures the turning of what we see as the repetition of the mind. The music only breaks from this repetitious turning on certain break through words
Mind experience
- Think about how many times you have the same thought. Are you captured in your own melodic pattern?
To think about
- We’re playing those mind games together
Pushing the barriers planting seeds
- Love is the answer and you know that for sure
Love is a flower you got to let it grow
