Take Your Turn

by Cooney Thatcher

about

"Take Your Turn” is the music of the perpetual loss and return of attention. Our focus is something on the fringe of our control. Our memories are deeper than our attention is able to let us sink.

Maybe this limit defines us as human, but another thing that defines humanity is the pushing of limits. What happens when we bring our attention deeper? Will we find a bottomless ocean of memory, connecting us all?

In daily life, we often skim the surface. This song is an ode to the dance of dolphins, in and out of the water, in play and in beauty.

lyrics

Take your turn
You were following a wave of self control and failed
It has happened to me, I know how it feels
Like losing your mind
Losing the time
Missing the ride
And you realize its passing you by
I know how it feels but it isn't the last
Take your turn

There's always another
There's always another
Always another
Always another
Always another

Once, no, twice
Just enough to make a segment of a line
That's leading you home
Now you will know when you see it again, reinforced
I've been here before
Regardless of time
Painting the sign
Take your turn

So you know
You wanted them to see right through your skin; they did
You belong to them as much as to yourself
So leave them behind
Look at your mind
Soon you will find
Love can happen with ease
It happened to me; soon you will see
Take your turn
