As she walks in the room
Scented and tall
Hesitating once more
And as I take on myself
And the bitterness I felt
I realize that love flows
Wild, white horses
They will take me away
And the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath
Will I follow? Through the glory of life
I will scatter on the floor
Disappointed and sore
And in my thoughts I have bled
For the riddles I’ve been fed
Another lie moves over
Wild, white horses
They will take me away
And the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath
Will I follow? Wild, white horses
They will take me away
And the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath
Will I follow?
Keep it out, keep it in
If everybody is searching for the same shelter
Why does anyone think it’s theirs to know?
Collective bodies so hungry for the touch of a stranger
Magic contact, believe you’re not alone
Keep it out, keep it in
I’ll keep you out, so you never see me unraveling
We seek to settle, we make a home
It’s fun for a little, but soon it’s old
And so it withers like all the rest
Till we’re sleeping like strangers
On the opposite sides of the bed
Keep it out, keep it in
I’ll keep you out, so you never see me unraveling
You want all the promises made
But I don’t have the energy to suffice
Watch me while I disengage
You might even feel nice

Soho Rezanejad - Greed Wears a Disarming Face
“The first passage in the video relates to the record’s overarching narrative and title, ‘Six Archetypes’. Apple seeds rest in my hand while I sleep, searching for my mother in a dream — a reference to the orphan complex that Carl Jung writes about. He thought that children orphan themselves by abandoning their heritage for the pursuit of a particular quest, one which in no way fits their parents’ or caretakers’ expectations. In a different sense, one can become orphaned from society. An idea or ideology can become so common that the mass establishes a system of expectations: one person’s idea becomes the people’s image. So what choice do we have other than to be orphans? I am drawn to this archetype because it possesses qualities shared by all visionaries of the world. Inasmuch as the orphan relates to being alone, it’s also about the obsession for breaking and challenging systems.”

So much to be gleaned from Joe Rogan’s talk with Matthew Walker, author of “Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams”.
