you know, why I'm a now. But uh...

mmhmm.

...anyway um...

ok.

[Andy:] ok. So uh...it...I don't know...is that...it's with the cover...
is that a metaphor or...uh...I is it metaphorical for something or like, or is it...

well...

[Andy:] ...just or...

...nah. Well I mean. Yeah.
The...uh...atom, not really...I mean it's a symbol.
You see and you think atom.
It shows electrons in elliptical paths around a nucleus and all...we know...

mmhmm.

[David:] ...that's...that's not how an atom works. Or...or looks even, for matter...

ok.

[David:] ...and so....and so why it was appropriate for the cover, you know...

right. Uhmm. Ok. Yeah. I'm not really sure I see the connection. But...

[David:] ...well...and what we mean to say is the elements of worship are inadequate,
much like the depiction. But this is what we have you know?
It helps us the idea.

mmhmm. Mmhmm. Uhmm. Ok. Uh.
Tell...ok...what's the deal with these little songs between the real...you know, the songs?
Like are they significant? Uhmm...is there like a of the album?
Or are they space? Like what's...going on there?

no. It swells.

oh. Right. It swells. Uhmm. Ok. Well.
And so the end with this...this piece called "the lark ascending."
now what is...what is the lark?
Is that...is that also a metaphor for

[David:] uhmm. I gue...I I guess. I just...I don't think...
I don't you should read too much into any of this you know
It's...I mean the lark was written...
it was a piece written by Vaughn who died in 1958,
and uh, the work opens with this set of sustained chords and then (coughs) sorry.
me. And uhmm.
Anyway and so then the enters as the lark and it...
it starts with this of ascending and repeated intervals and this...
these nimble elongated arpeggios. Uhmm.
And he actually found inspiration in a work by the English poet George
who died in 1909 and the composer included a of Meredith's poem on the flyleaf...

[Andy:] uh...

[David:] ...of the published

....hold on wait...

...uhmm...

[Andy:] ...why do you mentioning...

...and it...

[Andy:] ...the year died?

...well it went...and it went like this it says uh...

"He rises and to round,

He drops the chain of sound,

Of many links a break,

In chirrup, whistle, and shake.

For till his heaven fills,

'Tis love of that he instills,

And winging up and up,

Our is his golden cup

And he the which overflows

To us with him as he goes.

Till on his aerial rings

In light, and the fancy sings."

[Andy:] huh. Wow. nice. But I mean...but who is the lark?

[David:] I know.

[Andy:] sorry. I think i've got the page. Uhmm.
The you gave me says something different. It says, "you are."

[David:] but I don't...
I don't feel like the lark much of the time and uhmm are other larks for me you know?

[Andy:] wait a second. Ok. So correct me if I'm but uhmm...

[David:] did you ever notice that the sky is all the way to the

[Andy:] wait. Hold on.

we're walking around in it. We're in the sky.
There is sky and there is and we're somewhere in between.
is where we live.
And some of us take wing and when they do,
when feet leave the ground, even for a second,
they pull the rest of us them.
And we rise, and when we rise,
and when we that the sky has been around us all along.
We have been walking into it. It has this constant collision.
and depravity.
And we rise and we rise and we and we rise and we rise
and we rise and we and we rise and we rise and we rise
and we and we rise and we rise and we rise...
