about

Also originally from Evolution of Jazzraptor; this song was a close call, in terms of adding it to this album. It's of a different genre than the rest of the album. On the other hand, I'm featuring a variety of virtuoso performances on the album, and with Michael Lee Firkins jumping in, it certainly measure up in that respect! Beatboxer Sam Rogers gives the song a bit of a different feel as well. . .

lyrics

I constantly die every day of my life
But at least I'm safe from pain and consequence
I constantly breathe, my heart constantly beats
There's a constant refrain from the blood and the heat
Cause I live much deeper than death

Further from the edge than where I die
Further from the edge than where I hurt
Further from the edge than where I cry
I live, I live further from the edge

Cats Got Nine
I've got a multiverse
Stitch in time
For one small universe
Cats got nine
I'm down to one
While I'm living and not living life

I am me; here, there, everywhere
Nowhere safe from not living life
I am free from suffering pestilence
I suffer from ignorance and I'm cheating life
Cause I'll die much deeper than death

Further from the edge than where I run
Further from the edge than where I laugh
Further from the edge than where I love
I'll die, I'll die further from the edge

Cats Got Nine
I've got a multiverse
Stitch in time
For one small universe
Cats got nine
I'm down to one
While I'm living and not living life

Pete Jones Plays Genesis - Selling England For A Pound (Charity Release)

This is one of the best interpretations I've heard of Genesis music, Pete would have made an excellent replacement vocalist for the band itself, he has a lovely feel for the songs, and a perfect voice for the material Colman Jones
