Creator Protector Destroyer (Cave Street)
Gumbo
Ever since i heard Cave Street’s Creator Protector Destroyer (from their 2010 RPM album) run from that song back into the opening didj of Onion Bell (the first track) i wanted to put the lyrics to that pulsing energy, and today i had time to give it a try.
It came out shorter than expected but i like the drive so here you are.
It’s just two guitars and two voices - maybe there’s some growth in it yet.
I have touched and I have known
the memories of stone
And echoes of the oceans
are etched upon my bones
My body’s of the earth
and my spirit’s of the sky
My mind is of the matter
these memories will never die
So let’s go down below the waves
into the heart of things
A many layered onion bell
that forever rings
resonating energy
of possibilities
a burning fire of pure love
for all eternity
anything can happen here
for everything is true
and all thoughts have their consequences
like everything we do
once you’ve seen the truth it’s time
to take responsibility
for all your thoughts and actions
as you create reality

thank you Guest! it's an interesting dichotomy for sure. The words are by Cave Street, btw - check out his/their music here at Alonetone
Frank Zappa once said - "You Are What You Is" It's unnerving but true and as Gumbo says "Memories Will Never Die" - Great Song!
Well done!!
Love the sparseness to this. Simple but very effective. This has a classic feel to it. Well done!
Just listened to both versions back to back, different treatments of the same theme. Great!
Gumbo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Very FNG! Great Vocals man.
