I can hear the pinprick, I can hear the razor blade I can hear the sound of a life laid down like a prayer I can feel the rumble of war pressing up against all of our hearts And I share the fear that somehow all of this will be taken away…

no one ever asks, “how are you feeling?” no one ever really asks, “how are you feeling?”
they arrested the dawn and are interrogating the day (for whom they say) hope is almost gone morning wanders lost in the wastelands of south lebanon
as the unseen brings new life each morning and the river makes the desert sigh I heard the spirit whisper, “see how both of you will fly.”
Michigan-based Palestinian-American activist and freelance writer Sherri Muzher interviewed Nigel Parry in December 2000, after the album was put together.
