about

This was inspired by Ingmar Bergman's, "The Seventh Seal," mainly his interpretation of the half an hour quote from Revelation: "And when the Lamb had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour." It seems that half an hour of silence has lasted the entire existence of humans, so we make our own noise to fill the emptiness. This clamor is more satisfying to me than that of a shy savior waiting for the right time to appear.

lyrics

In the span
of half an hour
we will live our lives.
The high silence
resounding now
with the echoes of
our listening.

You and I will make a clamor
in this half an hour.
The sulking gods protest on their clouds
as we vandalize the silence.

In the span
of half an hour
we have lived our lives.
Now we wish to hear
the voices of
our future,
but to speak is sin.

You and I will make a clamor
in this half an hour.
The sulking gods protest on their clouds
as we vandalize the silence.

Ooooh…
