The Transit of Venus

The first single from my upcoming album. Available wherever you stream music.

Lyrics:

The Transit of Venus
Tear out the pages
Rewrite the past
The wisdom of ages
Was never going to last

And it’s no shame to hang your harp
Upon the willow for a while
Then shake the dust off of your feet
And gain another mile
It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe
The gods have ever seen us
We only know what we don’t know
And we can’t capture
The transit of Venus

The engine engages
The road is not clear
The wisdom of sages
Can’t help your hands to steer

And it’s no shame to hang your harp
Upon the willow for a while
Then shake the dust off of your feet
And gain another mile
It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe
The gods have ever seen us
We only know what we don’t know
And we can’t capture
The transit of Venus
