let me in - akira the don & alan watts lyrics

this is the paradox of the ocean
sand
flying spray
pebbles and sh*lls
driftwood
sparkling water
sp*ce incredibly luminous
with cloud banks
along horizons
underlying skies into which
one’s imagination can reach forever
but under the surface
of both sky and water
there’s the grim business of preying
men and birds against fish
fish against fish
the tortuous process of
life continuing
by the painful transformation
of one form to another
to creatures
who don’t antic*p*te
and reflect imaginatively
upon this holocaust
of eating and being eaten
it’s perhaps not so tеrrible
let me in
lеt me in
i love you so much
let me in
let me in
i love you
to the very core
surrender to me
to this agony
and you will be
transformed into me
let me in
let me in
i love you

but poor man
sk!llful beyond all other animals
by being able to think in time
and knowing the future
he dies before he’s dead
he shrinks from the shark’s t**th
before they bite
he dreads the alien germ
long, long
before its banquet begins
here is a gull
that has picked a crab from a tide pool
sprawled now upon the sand
the crab shrinks from the walls
of its sh*ll
resounding to the tap, tap, tap
of the gull’s beak
who’s that knocking my door?
let me in
let me in
i love you so much
let me in
let me in
i love you
to the very core
surrender to me
to this agony
and you will be
transformed into me
let me in
let me in
i love you

i suppose the sh*ll of the crab
the clam or the muscle
is the boundary of its universe
to put ourselves in their position
we should have to imagine
a knocking sound
louder and louder
that doesn’t come from anywhere
in particular
from the door or the walls
or the ceiling or the floor
think of a knocking
that comes from everywhere
that
beats against the boundaries
of sp*ce and consciousness
that comes as the intrusion
of an utterly unknown dimension
into our own familiar world
let me in
let me in
i love you so much
i could eat you
i love you to the very core
especially the soft
juicy parts
the vitals most tender and alive
surrender to this agony
and you’ll be transformed into me
dying to yourself
you’ll become alive as me
we shall all be changed in a moment
in the twinkling of an eye
on the morning when the last trumpet sounds
let me in
let me in
i love you
for behold
i am he
that stands at the door
and knocks
