about
Grand Well places the story of the ATOM DEATH on a cosmic level in which the scale of time and space is infinite and inconceivable. Large objects in space like suns create strong gravity wells that define how time works in those areas.
Meanwhile, all sentient memories, myths, dramas, and histories that play out in those isolated pockets of the universe occur and are eventually swallowed in the vastness of time and space, regardless of how important they seem at the time...
lyrics
_____Grand Well_____
Time gives us everything,
Including the space to be.
Gravity, all around you and me
Holding each moment in place
As the sun shines into the void
Like a jewel at the bottom of a grand well
An eternity is so much time … time, time, time
I don’t know what it was
I was dreaming of being a person
In a time, in a place
In that thing that happened
I don’t know what it was
Though it seemed so important
But that time and that place are so long ago … time, time, time
You may feel great pain
It’s insignificant
Deep in space, there’s an Earth ray
A silent movie, a reflection projecting our perfect day
Our friends in a line, we had tears in our eyes
Holding both hands, we meant every vow that we made that day
Back again
Haven’t we been here before
I coulda sworn this story’s recurring
Haven’t we said this before
I coulda sworn, coulda sworn
Haven’t we done this before
I coulda sworn this moment’s repeating
Trapped in time (running out of time)
I was dreaming of being a person
You may feel great pain
It’s insignificant
Did all of your dream come true?
Did it feel like there was someone for you?
Did all of your plans come through?
Did it seem like there was a purpose to you?
