about

While staying in a small village on the rooftop of a hostel in the northern hills of Morocco, Jameson recorded the “call to prayer” which rang through the streets 5 times a day.
A song was written later using the call throughout the song along with the ringing sound of a cardboard dulcimer bought near Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina.

lyrics

Look the light fits in our hands
without start without end

also darkness rest within
in the cracks of aged skin

We are the keepers holders of light
Just as the fire turns into night

We are the sparks that burn from the dust
we carry the rain of metal to rust

What you're holding is a star
just as large just as small

Open up and let it fly
cycled life that never dies
