Story behind the song
originally from my Improv-rock musical "Life = Choices" it's about what you're left with after all the psychotherapy, faith healers and television wisdom - monkeys smoking cigarettes.
Lyrics
One step per step, one day per day,
I live my life out this way.
No peripheral vision, distractions are few,
To live in the moment, you've gotta block the view.
(chorus)
Connecting the rainbows, unending,
If my mind allows.
Connecting the rainbows, pretending,
That prevailing winds won’t knock the rainbows down.
If out of sight, it’s out of mind.
No shadows grow long behind.
No nagging epiphanies, no serendipitous doubt.
Just be what I see and let the rest play out.
Going back to the past when things were really sad.
It’s gonna be real cool just like the guy in the ad.
