about

It was early in the morning on day three of a four day vision quest up on a mountain ridge in south Austria, when I had a vision of a round portal door on the mountain side. I was thrown backwards down off the mountain and I lacerated my right hand in the fall. The thumb became infected and was about to be amputated, Renata called up all the healers, they focused on me through her and now I still have both hands to make music. In the hospital during four operations I had a near death experience, thats the chorus. This song tells the story.

lyrics

I walk with my friends I am walking (G min)

Chorus:
I walk, with my friends I am walking
The way, to the lodge of my Elders
The road is as clear as the blue sky
I float on my feet as I am walking

White mist rising cold over the pine trees,
bright deer weaving gold through the green grass,
Sunrise is as red as my heart’s blood,
purple rainbow is bridging the valley
Chorus:

Wide portal with flames it is open, I pray looking south on the mountain
Round door in my eyes I am seeing.
There is no way, there is no way looking backwards
Chorus:

I fall into blank and oblivion, I’ve been to the place where there is mystery.
Awake I’ve awoken to being grateful, and grown to the place of an Elder.
Chorus:

And gone is the false and the struggle, and gone are the years when I’m fighting
And gone is the fear of survival, and gone is the mask I clung onto
And come is the peace I am now wearing, and come is the joy in my living
And come is the love I am sharing, and come are my days being happy
Chorus:

And gone are my mothers and my fathers, and come are their spirits for always
And gone is the youth and the crazy dreams,
and come is a way looking onwards, onwards, onwards, onwards…
Chorus: x2
