Petals on the water, smoke up in the air. This is a blue lotus ceremony poured into psychedelic electro-rock, down along the Nile where the reeds grow tall, sacred blue flowers steeped in wine for seven days and nights while Hathor pours it heavy under torchlight. The groove moves like the river, unhurried and hypnotic, as female vocals surrender petal by petal to the stream. Jaws unclench, shoulders fall slow, honey wine passes around the circle, and the ego dissolves into evening only to be born again by noon. By the bridge it becomes a prayer, drink deep, dream sweet, I pray the lotus my soul to keep. A thousand-year-old secret the pharaohs knew, rising with the sun like the ancient ones. Sip it slow, let it go, meet her there.
Petals on the water Smoke up in the air Sip it slow, let it go, meet me there Down along the Nile where the reeds grow tall Sacred blue flower awaits all who hear the call Steeped inside the wine for seven days and nights Hathor pour it heavy under torchlight Jaw unclenching, shoulders falling slow Thousand-year-old secret that the pharaohs know Petal by petal I surrender to the stream Wide awake and walking through a lucid dream Petals on the water Smoke up in the air Blue lotus fire take away my cares Petals on the water Nectar on my tongue Rising with the sun like the ancient ones Petals on the water She opens with the sunrise, closes with the moon Ego dissolves into evening, born again by noon Honey wine is flowing, take a sip pass it around Floating out my body, spirit lifted off the ground Jaw unclenching, shoulders falling slow Thousand-year-old secret that the pharaohs know Petal by petal I surrender to the stream Wide awake and walking through a lucid dream Petals on the water Smoke up in the air Blue lotus fire take away my cares Petals on the water Nectar on my tongue Rising with the sun like the ancient ones Petals on the water Drink deep (drink deep) Dream sweet (dream sweet) I pray the lotus my soul to keep Drink deep (drink deep) Dream sweet (dream sweet) She holds my spirit while my body sleeps Petals on the water Smoke up in the air Blue lotus fire take away my cares Petals on the water Nectar on my tongue Rising with the sun like the ancient ones Petals on the water Petals on the water I pray the lotus my soul to keep Petals on the water She holds my spirit while my body sleeps
