about
"The Fall of Mankind is Wishing We Could Have Done Something" are the lyrics I want you to hear on this new single, and also of course the title phrase Tabula Rasa or in this case, personified at Tabula Rosa. The idea that it's never too late or too often to wipe the slate clean; and proceed forward with purpose, and intention, with no preconceived thoughts, judgement, or attachments. In my experience to be truly be zen in any given moment of challenge or choice, is to be present but to see yourself from the future and the past. For Humankind to co-exist we must constantly learn to forgive ourselves and others and bow to ourselves and each other in honor and humility. Tabula Rosa is a mantra for a fresh start, that we would allow ourselves, to feel and move through every molecule of what has upset us in the past, or slowed us down; because every passing thought is a chance to check-in on our mind and ask if our thoughts are serving us or doing a disservice to our best co-existence.
lyrics
** Tabula Rosa **
Take it Back
Lose a Little When I Erase it
Never want it to Define me
Let Each Moment Pass
Without a Thought
No Judgment Call
Just Observe Each Other
Not Holding Back
Tabula Rosa
We're Likely to Make Mistakes without You
Tabula Rosa
We're Hoping to Start off Better this Year

Until We are Cruel
Tabula Rosa
We're Likely to Make Mistakes without You
Tabula Rosa
We're Hoping to Start off Better this Year
Wishing Away
Hoping to Start off Better this Year
CALL OUT TO OUR MINDS
To Release the Same Old Story
The Fall of Man Kind
Is Wishing We Could Have Done Something Right
Wishing Away
I Could Have Done Something
Wishing Away
Wishing I Could Have Done Something
I Could Have Done Something
I Could Have Done Something Right
Call to Our Mind
And Realize it's the Same Damn Story
The Fall Of Mankind
Is Wishing We Could Have Done Something, Right (?)
