Lyrics

Vitam Edoceo Vitam
Life teaches life We are a glance in a great eye watching
Life teaches life Through every mind the seed is passing
Life teaches life - one thing: evolve

Four billion years of evolution
A lifespan’s the froth on windswept tide
Peel off the fears and savage delusions / savaged illusions
And wave after wave of the old gods die

And Life teaches life - one thing: evolve

Deep in the seed that moves between us
The shape of the meaning as cells combine
The weave of the dream before we see it
Leaves trace elements of your hand in mine

And Life teaches life - one thing: evolve

Life teaches life We are a glance in a great eye watching
Life teaches life Through every mind the seed is passing

Life teaches life - one thing: evolve

A strand in the web of all existence
Revealed in the joy of a midnight kiss
Spanning the centuries of starlit distance
Or so it would seem on a night like this

Life teaches life - one thing: evolve

One thing: Evolve
One thing: Evolve
