about

One track from our album "West Coast Alive!" which we recorded live with WEB of ONE, our devotional rock fusion jam-band. You can check out the whole album here on bandcamp under WEB of ONE.
This song was inspired by the 20th chapter of Lao Tzu's Tao Te King.

lyrics

NURSING FROM THE TAO

Ordinary men are shining brightly
As if enjoying a banquet or royal feast
I alone won’t stand in the lime-light
I alone appear to be listless and still

Chorus:
I am like and infant that hasn’t been born yet
I am like an infant that hasn’t yet smiled
Drifting in the current
Carried by the sea
I’m alone nursing from the Tao

Ordinary men all have enough and more to spare
I alone seem to have nothing at all
I seem to have been dealt a crazy heart
I seem to be dwelling in a state of chaos

Ordinary men look shining and intelligent
They are perceptive and know just what to do
I alone seem to be dull and incapable
I alone seem to be nothing but a fool
