Song information
This song was originally recorded back in 2006.

In 2018 I re-recorded all of the electric guitar parts and did a full remix.

The Greek word LOGOS has quite a history. It looms large in the philosophy of Heraclitus, and in both Platonism and Stoicism.

It’s meaning includes ideas like the rational principle or guiding pattern informing and/or underlying the universe. It overlaps somewhat in meaning with the Sanskrit VAC, and the Chinese DAO.

The author of the Gospel of John declares Jesus to be the embodiment of the LOGOS.

Much more could be said, but this will suffice to lay the groundwork for this song.

Remastered in 2024 by Tom Hellsten of TSTstudios. (Thanks bro!)

Lyrics
LOGOS MAN

Ever since I was a young child I felt its gravitational pull,
and heard its echo deep down within my very essence.

As the sunflower turns its face to the light,
and iron filings magnetized align;
I must seek until the Mystery speaks from out the silence.

You can howl at the Sun, or sing to the stars;
but will you ever understand who and what you are?
Have you ever heard the Logos speak inside of you?
The salmon will fight its way upstream,
while dead fish float past as if lost in a dream!
Which one are you my friend, and will you find peace in the end?

On the far side of the cloud-of-unknowing
 lies the Truth that illuminates all created being…
Reach out! Reach up, until you’re enveloped in its loving radiance.

As the sunflower turns its face to the light,
and iron filings magnetized align;
we must all of us seek until the Logos speaks from out the silence.

You can howl at the Sun, or sing to the stars;
but will you ever understand who and what you are?
Have you ever heard the Logos speak inside of you?
The salmon will fight its way upstream,
while dead fish float past as if lost in a dream!
Which one are you my friend, and will you find peace in the end?

I’m a Logos man.
Yeah, I’m a Logos man.
