As in Gardens so in Tombs
Lyrics:
[English]
The connection between
The seen and the unseen
The bond of the scared
And the ordinary
To vibrate as one, to resonate
As hundred and ten
As strings where time and place
Does not matter
Blow your whistle
Controller of the multiverse
As in chants, so in pillars
Reconnect us to the above
Reveal your starry skies
Plant your flowers
Generator of preservation
As in gardens, so in tombs
Becoming one with that pulse
As I drown in your binaural beats
...
The sum of the vowels
The subtraction of consonants
Opening of doors to the beyond
Show us the future
Reveal the past
...
Argh!
The connection between
The visible and the hidden
The link between
Spirit and nature
To vibrate as one to resonate
As hundred and ten
As layers where time and place
Does not matter
Blow your whistle
Controller of the multiverse
As in chants, so in pillars
Reconnect us to the above
Reveal your starry skies
Plant your flowers
Generator of preservation
As in gardens, so in tombs
Becoming one with that pulse
As I drown in your binaural beats
...

As in Gardens so in Tombs

➔ Noun phrases with "the" + adjective

To vibrate as one, to resonate As hundred and ten
➔ Infinitive of purpose; Simile
