Trying to extricate Myself from this poisonous vein In the body of life I just want out The slow retreat and the quickenin' The speed of light and atomic spin The more you learn, you find the less you are The dawn of it all from a dying star Do as I said, do as your told Be wise, don't get old Open this door but don't walk through Need the sun but stay on the moon All you have to do to be amazed Is put your back in the earth and direct your eyes into space It's proof that you are truly smaller than you feel When it takes billions of years for light to reach this place To look into the sky is to look at the past Elegant cinema that's unsurpassed So I don't expect you all to understand In fact I know not many can Listen when I say This bold thought kicks your heart into starting Starlight's journey through a timeless void Through your eyes into your heart to joy Look into the sky These bold thoughts kick your heart into starting To look into the sky is to look at the past (An) elegant cinema is unsurpassed Can feel so cold, while the weather's warm Can hear the ocean, but I can't find the shore Can see my feet, but I can't find my shoes I found my shoes, but I don't know where I stand anymore Removed my shades, so I can drive my car I raised my mind, now I can see these scars Live for this life cause life is so absurd One in ten to the tenth, yet here we are
