Moon Heart Sun Head Lyrics


I let the moon in my heart

To ventilate

An embryonic wisdom

Where I get to awake

A living flame

I turn the key

Open the door

The atmosphere enters my home

Cause the moon's inside my heart

I hold the sun in my head

To self-contain

A cocoon melts inside me

Protection's just a weight

I can be brave

In gentle ways

Step out into the open space

Eye-level truth

When I hold the sun in my head

They're one in the same

Moon heart sun head

I'm black and blue

And smile at fear

I'm broke and bruised

And smile at fear

They're one in the same

Moon heart sun head

[Spoken word interlude by Alan Watts]

So far so good.

But the truth is funnier than that.

t is that you are looking right at the brilliant light now

that the experience you are having

that you call ordinary everyday consciousness

--pretending you're not it--

that experience is exactly the same thing as 'it.'

There's no difference at all
