about

The lyrics came first and the music followed the next day. The song was inspired by an argument with a close friend who tried to get me involved in some New Age rap group that sounded suspiciously like a pyramid-type scam (which I suppose is appropriate!). This led to an argument concerning negative and positive outlooks on the world. Guess which one I was accused of having? The music reflects my interest in blending acoustic and electric guitar textures, and a wish to experiment with a more folk-oriented style.

lyrics

Time to wake up and see what's around
Time to learn without a sound
Time to understand without second sight
Nothing in the dark that's not there in the light

Don't criticize me, you can't understand
What looking at life can do to a man
Don't try to deny or claim perfection
There's problems with us that surpass detection

Can't you understand, it's still all right

Nothing in the dark that's not there in the light

There's something to learn in every disease
I'll take my knowledge and do as I please
See the blood on the hands of those angels in white
Nothing in the dark that's not there in the light

G.S., 2/19/87
