about
William Blake died penniless and unrecognised for his artistic oeuvre, but his images and poems live in our imaginations still.
Over another loop from one of our jams, but this is 100% redemption. Joyous and optimistic. Set back up on Black Mountain, but this time, rivers of love flow from life's wounds. The song is filled with faith and hope and a bright vision of rebirth and renewal.
lyrics
He's born new again
All of rainbows hues again
Sea of sound where anger boils
Billy Blake is drawing girls
from a mountain side on high,
a fountain of love flows from his side
Midst the wretched play of isotopes
Find periodic William goat
Grandma ringing silver bell
a note too pure to hang in hell
Lambs bind angels, submission
in glittered porcelain and tin,
a fountain of love flows from his side
Sea of sound where anger boils
Billy Blake is drawing girls
from a mountain side on high,
a fountain of love flows from his side
The time is wild an beautiful,
stretch it out an fold at will
See the foal out in the field
all September's life in seed
hidden in the brethren,
a community that breathes in time
We are of one mind
