    Verse 1
    Every 
    thread of 

    creation 
    is held 
    in 
    position 

    By still 
    other 
    strands 
    of things 

    living. 

    In an earthly 
    tapestry 
    hun

    g from 
    the skyline 

    Of smol
    dering 
    cities 
    so 
    gray 
    and so vulgar, 

    As 
    not to be 
    satisfied 
    with 

    their 
    own 
    negativity 

    But needing 
    to 
    touch 

    all the 
    liv
    ing 
    as 
    well. 

    Verse 2

    Every 
    breeze 
    that blows 
    kindly 

    is one 
    crystal 
    breath 

    We exhale 
    on the 
    blue diamond 

    heav
    en. 

    As gentle 
    to touch 
    as 
    the 

    hands 
    of the 
    healer. 

    As soft 
    as farewells 

    whispered 
    over 
    the coffin. 

    We're poisoned 
    by 
    venom with 

    each breath 
    we 
    take, 

    From the 
    brown 
    sulfur 
    chim
    ney 

    and 
    the 
    black 
    highway 
    snake. 

    Verse 3

    Every 
    dawn 
    that breaks 
    golden 

    is 
    held 
    in suspension 

    Like the 
    yoke of the 
    egg in 
    albumen. 

    Where 
    the birth 
    and 
    the death 

    of un
    seen 
    generations 

    Are interdependent 
    in vast 

    orchestration 

    And painted 
    in 
    colors 
    of tapestry 

    thread. 

    When the dying 
    are born 
    and 

    the 
    living 
    are 
    dead. 

    Verse 4
    Every pulse 
    of your 
    heartbeat 

    is one liquid 
    moment 

    That 
    flows 
    through the 
    veins 
    of your being. 

    Like 
    a river of 
    life 
    flowing on since 

    creation. 

    Approaching 
    the sea 
    with each new 

    generation. 

    You're 
    now just 
    a stagnant 

    and rancid 
    disgrace 

    That is 
    rapidly drown

    ing the whole 
    hu
    man 
    race. 

    Verse 5
    Every 
    fish that 
    swim
    s silent, 

    every bird 
    that 
    flies 
    freely, 

    Every 
    doe 
    that 
    steps softly. 

    Every crisp 
    leaf that falls, 

    all 
    the 
    flowers 
    that grow 

    On this colorful 
    tapestry, 

    some
    how 
    they know. 

    That if man 
    is allowed 
    to des

    troy 
    all they need. 

    He 
    will soon 
    have 
    to 
    pay 
    with his 
    life, 

    for his 
    greed.

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
