Maybe not for creation exactly but aligning with a spirit (perhaps) of an endless form most beautiful?
These concepts pop up when following one's nose without knowing the conclusive connotations that may present along the way.“Endless Forms Most Beautiful” is an upcoming 78-minute epic by the Finland-based symphonic metal band “Nightwish”.
The album is inspired by the wonders of the natural world, featuring Professor Richard Dawkins as a narrator and a very special guest in two of the album`s songs (“Shudder Before The Beautiful” & “The Greatest Show On Earth”)!
Come on, hop on, let's take a ride
Come and meet the travelers who came to town
They have a tale from the past to tell
From the great dark between the starsWe are a special speck of dust
A fleeting moment on an ark
A celebration, a resthaven
Of lifeLay on a field of green
With Mother Eve
With Father Pine reaching high
Look at yourself in the eyes of aye-aye
Unfolding rendezvousDeep into the past
Follow the aeon path
Greet a blade of grass
Every endless form most beautiful
Alive, aware, in awe
Before the grandeur of it all
Our floating pale blue ark
Of endless forms most beautifulArchaean horizon
The first sunrise
On a pristine gaea
Opus perfectum
Somewhere there, us sleepingAfter sleeping through a hundred million centuries
We have finally opened our eyes on a sumptuous planet, sparkling with color, bountiful with life
Within decades we must close our eyes again
Isn't it a noble and enlightened way of spending our brief time in the sun
To work at understanding the universe and how we have come to wake up in it?The cosmic law of gravity
Pulled the newborns around a fire
A careless cold infinity in every vast direction
Lonely farer in the Goldilocks zone
She has a tale to tell
From the stellar nursery into a carbon feast
Enter LUCAThe tapestry of chemistry
There's a writing in the garden
Leading us to the mother of allWe are one
We are a universe
Forebears of what will be
Scions of the Devonian sea
Aeons pass
Writing the tale of us all
A day-to-day new opening
For the greatest show on Earth
