Free-motion quilted 'lyrics':

have we forgotten, are we too far away
to remember the connections that link
us to the natural world, all living things
such a beautiful place, I miss it already
(la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
we found a source, a force in the depths
down where eons had buried remains dead
better for now, better for then, when
better forever, that’s not the case
(la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
flip the priorities at people and planet
at the center, not overpowered industry
who were meant to serve us, not us them
unrestrained capitalism kills in a finite world
(la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
what is the goal? Destroy everything given us?
Extract, Produce, Consume, Tra[n]sfer
all resources to imagined currency
Goldilocks is just a place that is
(nowhere else, nowhere else, nowhere else)
ups and downs, highs and lows, where to go
if we lose connection, we lose purpose
unchecked power for some, then for none, remember
we were stitched together for a time
