The Story of the One (Lyrics)
Here’s a PDF , and here is the musical Album.
The Introduction
May I introduce myself?
I'm Mushie! How about you?
I've got just a few words to share this eve,
But before we make our way through
I'd like to take this moment to say:
Thank you and I Love you, too!
So, Take a moment to consider what makes “you” yourself alive
And who’s the “you” by whom Life is possessed?
So puzzling an inquiry you may well not survive,
But you will have thoroughly been Stretched into Infinity!
A sea of Singularity!
Interested? Then come with me!
A journey to Eternity
That’s found within the depths of Ye.
Back Home
There’s a Life I tell of:
Beyond Life and Death it dwells!
Not out of reach for you and me,
It’s deep inside yourself.
I’ve got some things to say to you,
And I just hope you’ll hear
The Silence there between the words
That nullifies the Fear.
There’s a place beyond this world, you see,
Inside of every Heart.
And walking through the door, you’ll see
We’ve been Here from the start.
Oh don’t you know my story’s true?
And if it resonates with you
It’s time to come…
It’s time to come Back Home.
A space of Love and Harmony
Where hate cannot abide…
Where each illumined soul
In all existence doth reside!
And the faceless ones of us
Who see the “me” in every “you”
Have prepared a tranquil place
For those who see the whole Way through.
But for eyes who look in disbelief,
What I speak of can’t be found.
Though a seeker with sincerity,
That one the One surrounds.
Oh don’t you know my story’s true?
And if it resonates with you
It’s time to come…
It’s time to come Back Home.
There’s a Life I tell of:
Beyond Life and Death it dwells!
Not out of reach for you and me,
It’s deep inside your…
Self, what’s a self but the story that you tell
Of your Life that relates “other” and “I?”
Say good bye to the suffering and
“Hello!” To eternal Happiness.
The Awakening
At the… at the story’s end,
Will you befriend Me as I Am?
Not as a man,
But as the voice inside the Hridayam.
I stand with nowhere to stand,
So take my hand and don’t look down;
Join me Here Now.
When it… when it all began,
My eyes were opened and I ran
Into perfection, intuit directions,
And make a selection of who I’ll be
While becoming nobody
This Awakening,
It’s not just me, its We!
‘Cause if we aren’t Here,
Then I’m not Free.
For freedom comes to us, you’ll see,
When we meet behind “me”
And see You are Me
And I am We
And We are all inside this crazy dream
And this may sound like crazy things,
But if you’re hearing me, then say something!
‘Cause I’m Listening.
Maybe something like:
“Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but…
Life is but a Dream”
With one Way out Join me Here Now!
The Dream
…Life is but a…
Dream of mine
I’ll tell you ‘bout a Dream I had one night.
Oh, a Light so bright the dream had faded,
A Light so bright it illuminated Life!
What exactly is it that you're looking for?
And where is it you're going in the End?
Oh, who am I to tell you what this Life is,
My dear friend?
This Dream I have cannot be passed from me to you,
You have to find a Path and walk alone.
But I’ll be there to hold your hand
And sing the whole way Home.
Life, it holds a boundless Love and Happiness—
A Light that can illuminate the Soul—
That lies in understanding that
We all, as One, are Whole.
But heed a word of caution,
Dear companions,
The Light does not ignore the world around.
So rest in tranquil emptiness
And learn to stand your ground.
Do all that you do with great sincerity,
Detached from every outcome,
Walk away Free your soul from fear, anger, and greed,
And learn to Pray.
I Am ready to let go
And accept the unknown
Great thanks for Love and Grace
My Heart is filled today!
Whither
Follow me into the dark,
Sit at the hearth,
And tell me why you're here.
Take a seat, my blackened dear!
The fire grows...
How did you get your name?
"Whither" just seems so strange...
But it's fitting, we're just sitting—
Wasting with time away.
From your point of view,
How do you choose
Who's worth the time at all
To watch all day long from the shadows?
Consider a conversation in the light,
Prevents altercations in the night
When you're trying to sleep.
Take one look around and you should know
The safest place for me to go
Is in my dreams...
Please, don't take that from me.
Listen well, my fragile friend!
We'll fight till the end,
But don't forget why you're here.
Don't make me your darkest fear...
This much I know.
How did you get your name?
Humans just seem so strange...
They just suffer while it buffers,
Wasting the world away.
From your point of view,
How do you choose to burn your lives to dust,
While preaching not to trust?
Since when is isolation the best way to live?
Consider a conversation in the night,
Prevents altercations in your Life
When you're trying to Be.
Take one look around and you should know
The one safe place I used to go
Is in your dreams...
Please, don't take that from me.
The Silence
Slipping away again...
Don't know what's coming
On the other side.
Shedding yet another skin,
Questions stop the mind:
Who are you?
Who are You?
I Am the Silence.
I Am the Silence.
Shhh...
Whispers of the Heart
I listen close and hear Your voice
So loud and clear.
It says to disappear
And have no fear,
For I Am near.
One question for you, my dear:
Who are you?
Who are You?
I Am the Silence.
I Am the Silence.
Shhh...
The Story of the One
Deep in the depths of the Ocean
Lies the One who put creation in motion;
It had a notion of what could’ve been
If every single Heart stayed openin’,
And it whispers in to call us when
We are ready.
People tell me,
Are you listenin’?
This is the Story of the One
Who’s been Here since time itself begun
Inside of everyone.
Within your Heart you hold the Sun
That is never burnin’ out.
Be still and know this with no doubt:
This is the Story of the One.
Oh, people are you listenin’?
To hear the Spirit whisperin’
The melody of an eternity
Oh, your Heart, it will be glistenin’
So listen in.
Follow the Sound,
Dissolve into Bliss and then
Come back and share the Love
With every beating Heart that will listen.
This is my mission!
Here is my speech;
This is my vision:
A Life where the Love of the One
Can freely flow through us and come to fruition
With no conditions.
This is the Story of the One
Who’s been Here since time itself begun
Inside of everyone.
Within your Heart you hold the Sun
That is never burnin’ out.
Be still and know this with no doubt:
This is the Story of the One.
The Cartographer
Tell me what you found down in the Ocean,
Will you, please?
I'd like to know about the Origin of things!
The Source of Life itself,
Ends and beginnings.
Well...have I got a story for you!
It started off a trek.
I thought, I’m going somewhere!
A walk with no direction,
And a Soul so unaware
That Life would take his plans
And toss them all high into the air!
To a place not “here” nor “there.”
I took a turn once,
And my mind was blown to bits!
I saw the patterns making all my mental tricks
To keep me trapped inside a cage of “that” and “this…”
How convincing it all is!
But I…
I found a map inside that leads to Nowhere,
A place of soulful living,
Life purely aware
A place where every Heart is bursting at the seams!
A map to Life beyond the Dream!
He found a map that leads to Nowhere,
A place of soulful living,
Life purely aware
A place where every Heart is bursting at the seams!
A map to Life beyond the Dream!
I found my Soul deep in the Heart of Nowhere…
A true abyss within a Light beyond compare…
A new reality beyond all figurings.
So this is Life beyond the Dream!
Hello, Bee!
Hello, Bee!
The rain has come again…
It’s washing away the green
On all the leaves on all the trees
I’m breathing in.
I wonder if the Sun will shine again…
Smiling down on the flowers that
You share with all your fellow buzzing friends,
And I understand
That in the End we all are
Walking hand in hand to the sea
Hello, Bee!
Hello, Bee!
The Sun came back today…
It’s funny the way you
Understand the words that I
Don’t even know how to start to say.
And when I think back to the songs of yesterday,
I’m eternally grateful for
Every little thing the Winds of Life
Have brought and blown away.
And it’s okay if every now and then
You need a helping hand,
You can lean on me,
Little Bee!
We’ll learn to Be without urgency,
‘Cause Life is not an emergency,
So emerge and see the fire in your eyes:
Beginning and the End,
The One that never will die!
Hello, Bee!
We’re dancing through the Light…
We’re fully alive,
Inspired by the Life that
For so long has been just out of sight.
So go on, dear friend,
And Love with all your might!
You just might find
Your Heart and Mind with open to
The Truth in every single “I.”
And in due time,
You’ll see the answer’s always been inside of ye,
So come with me,
And we’ll keep walking, hand-in-hand, into the Sea,
You and Me…
Hello, Bee!
