Lyrics
It's all still the same
Everything's untouched but forever changed
Oh, we're all still the same
Everything's untouched but forever changed
All the colors we painted yesterday
They look so different now
And all those harmonies we sang yesterday
All sound so different somehow
Though they're all still the same
Everything's untouched but forever changed
Everywhere on earth
Every single soul, everyone there is, all together now
And everyone alone all together on the precipice
All that mattered then, all that matters now
All that matters after the world shuts down
All of it dissolved all together in the chrysalis
Together in the chrysalis
Nothing changes, until one day it does, then there's no going back
Our best selves and our worst selves live in that moment there
Sparring over who draws the new maps
And though their lines
May look the same
Everything depends on who wins that game
Everywhere on earth
Every single soul, everyone there is, all together now
And everyone alone all together on the precipice
All that mattered then, all that matters now
All that matters after the world shuts down
All of it dissolved all together in the chrysalis
Together in the chrysalis
And now the impossible's happenin'
A million knots that we were told can't be untied
Would always hold all unraveling
And even while the heavens fall
The fog's still wrapped around us all
And when it's snuffed out every last star
We'll see just who we are
Just who we are
All together now, all together now
All together alone in the chrysalis
We're all together now
All together now, all together alone in the chrysalis
We're all together now
All together now, all together alone in the chrysalis
All together now
All together now, all together alone in the chrysalis
We're all together now
All together now, all together alone in the chrysalis
All together now
All together now, all together alone in the chrysalis
We're all together now
All together now, all together alone in the chrysalis
All together now
We're all together alone


 




"Everything with eyes has some amount of eyes"

"Everything with eyes has some amount of eyes"

This reminds me to not take myself too seriously. And about tautology.

Triops Has Three Eyes 

Rabbits have two eyes

And whales have two eyes

And eagles have two eyes

But triops has three eyes

Triops has three eyes

Two eyes on a face

Are usually enough

But triops has got

One that looks up

And one that looks around

And one to keep an eye

On the other pair of guys

Triops has three eyes

Needles have an eye

Tornadoes have an eye

Potatoes have a lot of eyes

But triops has three eyes

Triops has three eyes

Everything with eyes

Has some amount of eyes

And triops has got

One that looks up

And one that looks around

And one to keep an eye

On the other pair of guys

Triops has three eyes

There are two sides to every story

But triangles have three

And the tricycle has one more cycle

Than the washing machine

Chickens have two legs

And varmin [unverified] have two legs

And monkeys have two legs

But tripods have three legs

Tripods have three legs

They've got more than you

'cause they need more than two

A tripod has got

One that points back

And one that sticks out

And one to be a friend

To the other pair of legs

Tripods have three legs

Look, there's an eye

Hey, there's another eye

And there's a third eye

'cause triops has three eyes

Triops has three eyes

Two eyes on a face

Are usually enough

But triops has got

One that looks up

And one that looks around

And one to keep an eye

On the other pair of guys

Triops has got

One that points back

And one that sticks out

And one to be a friend

To the other pair of guys

Triops has three eyes

Triops has three eyes

Triops has three eyes

How Far Are You Willing to Love?: Including isn’t Agreeing

 I loved this talk by Ben Schilaty. 

How Far Are You Willing to Love?: Including isn’t Agreeing | Ben Schilaty | TEDxBYU
https://youtu.be/63lwcxP8ZVQ

Years ago I read his blog regularly.  http://benschilaty.blogspot.com/

Love God, Love my Neighbor, "On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." Matthew 22:40 https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/nt/matt/22.40?lang=eng#p40

His talk reminded me of this video of Dallin H. Oaks, "Love and Law", https://youtu.be/SsrZ1XqwQlg
