Farewell to a musical legend, Raymond Daniel Manzarek
2.12.39 - 5.20.13
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end.
I will shake myself into your pocket
Invisible
Do what you want
Do what you want
I will sink and I will disappear
I will slip into the groove
And cut me off
Cut me off
There’s an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
And now I’ll set you free
I’ll set you free
There’s an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I’ll set you free
I’ll set you free
Slowly we unfurl as lotus flowers
‘Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if, just to see what is
I can’t kick your habit
Just to feel your fast ballooning head
Listen to your heart
We will shake and we’ll be quiet as mice
And while the cat is away
Do what we want
Do what we want
There’s an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I’ll set you free
I’ll set you free
‘Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if, just to see what is
The bird lights float into my room
Slowly we unfurl as lotus flowers
‘Cause all I want is the earth upon a stick
I dance around the pit, the darkness is beneath
I can’t kick your habit
Just to feed your fast ballooning head
Listen to your heart
