lyrics

New Mind never knew Old Mind was his master.
New Mind played the riddle game well, but Old Mind played it meaner.
New Mind always trusted in himself at least.
Old Mind sniffs the wind— he knows when to flee.
New Mind, Old Mind were twins in the end.
New Mind, Old Mind loved the same thing.
They both know the power of wearing the ring.

Snowfall in the pines on a blue-sky day,
If it’s sharp and cool you don’t need clouds—the wind works in many ways.
New Mind knows the tracks he sees, he can read them like a code.
Old Mind don’t care what’s ahead, he just knows which way to go.
New Mind, Old Mind were twins in the end.
New Mind, Old Mind loved the same thing.
And they ran down the day, circling away
From the prize they both longed to hold—
They’ve touched it, but never seen the face before.
And they don’t know the price of wearing the ring.

As night fell they made camp, and their fire lit the dark.
New Mind curled up to sleep, with Old Mind standing guard.
New Mind suffered fit-full dreams, he woke up feeling pretty weird.
Old Mind whispered the night away, pouring thoughts into New Mind’s ear.
New Mind, Old Mind were twins in the end
New Mind, Old Mind loved the same thing.
****
And if you want to find love
You better love the right stuff.
