SECRET SOCIETIES
words and music (c) by Rob Bryanton (SOCAN)
(originally written for Globe Theatre’s Resuscitation of a Dying Mouse, 1986)

I believe in secret societies and underground confederacies
That move in my life
I believe in sisterly sororities and brotherly fraternities
And they’re part of my life

And there are signals, and there are signs
Right before us all the time
But we stumble deaf and blind
Cause we never realize

There are wheels that turn, that we never see
There are eyes that are watchin you and me
There are tears people cry cause they’ll never be free
Trapped in the arms of a secret society

I believe the guy sittin next to me waits for a sign from me
To show him I know
What he needs, or maybe what I need from him, but he won’t ever let me in
It’s a common tableau

Yes it happens all the time
We’re all sendin out signs
Cause we all need to know
Who are friends are, who’s the foe

Cause there are deals that are struck that play with our dreams
And there are people who move in places unseen
And pinocchios who dance as if they live and breathe
Tugged from above by a secret society

Oh, I believe it’s true

I absolutely loved this song, Rob. You did a good job. I think I might use it in a Youtube video one day if I ever get good at making videos (if it's okay with you, of course).

[Rob Bryanton]

By all means, use it, as long as you give me credit as the creator of whatever portion you use, and link back to my youtube channel (youtube.com/10thdim) or the tenthdimension.com site as part of your description for your video.

For those of you who do use any of my youtube content in your own videos, please don't be surprised if you're contacted by youtube saying you have used someone else's content. This is a surprisingly sophisticated system of automated analysis that youtube has where any new content uploaded is somehow compared with all of the existing content on youtube (yikes, what a database that must be!), and if a duplication is noted youtube will alert the new uploader. Some people find this upsetting, thinking that it might be because I lodged a complaint, but this happens completely automatically and other than youtube alerting you to the fact that someone else already owns the copyright to part of your video, your new video is allowed to stay up... at least that's my experience since youtube started this automated claiming process.

Best wishes,

Rob

This song indicates what makes us tick. All of us. Our way to replace religion standards into the more individualised society. Our search for a faceless leader, call a Creator or God. He was initially invented to explain natural phenomena and there were as many as defined phenomena. People tried to claim His title, and therefore they made him faceless and Universal. Now, everyone tries to redefine Him for him or herself. Everything is evolutionary, 'Cartasianally' dualistic (because of the polarity of magnetism) and recurrent.
I already said : 'I don't have a body, I AM a body', because if I HAD a body, than who would be 'I'? And that is the problem. Conceptual groupal defining of 1, in its redefining. Than if I am a body, than 'are' 'we' all 'the Universe'? Is there 'change' if everyday's '1' is redefined as '1', every day ? (and therefore also infinite, minus, 0 and the fractional?). Manifestation could be not a prediction, but a constant 'being'. An 'anomaly' could be order instead of chaos. Co-incidence needs a beholder. Does quantummechanics travel as fast as the beholder ? One idea, here, was very new to me. Someone, on this site, or Youtube (don't remember) said 'if that electron was the same one everywhere, anytime !' I still haven't figured this one out completely. It is a very good one.
I thought of quantummechanics as being 'constant mirrors' we look in. Conciousness might not be the right of only the 'defined living matter'. Conditioned sensual awareness is one out of the range of conciousnesses. Magnetism might just as well be as conscient as its 'evolved child' 'gravity'. Gravity gave birth to life, just by holding air keeping oxygen and keeping the sun's helium to give light and so on. Fate or choice ? I would say a consequence of defined natural laws that grows or fades as it goes. The ultimate fractional moment of measured time will be redefined infinitally beyond any Planck's constant, ... beyond its minds trying to define.

i like the lyrics of the song and actually i like the video created by Jason Doucette too...
