Can I kill the lights and shut off the energy? 'Cause the world is my windmill It's my enemy Can I kill the voice that babbles me to sleep Warning me that this process never ends? I'll be talking when I am dead and soil And the sound will remain when I carbonize to oil It's the ecstasy of flying Miles above the hungry war It's the fear of concentration Pulling me away once more It's the reason that I'm lying to you Why I can't sit still It's the vaguest implication Joining this world to my will And I don't think I can make this stop Though everything could change in the world up top Behind my skin blares a spoken song Though everything could change, it will echo on and on I'm a radio tuned to white noise in between What was hissing in the foreground is now a backdrop screen And should a river emerge of this cloudy stream Would it trickle a message that I trust? Can I know that a soothing word's not just The beginning of more grey noise to fill the dream? There's uncertainty in every face I think I've seen before There's an endless second guessing What's behind my bedroom door? There's no doubt that every blade of grass Feels urgency to speak There is writing on the wall In braille through foothills of concrete And I don't think I can make this stop Though everything could change in the world up top Behind my skin blares a spoken song Though everything could change, it will echo on and on I'm no hallucination Watch out, your vision lies For every Coelacanth reborn Nine hundred oceans die I know the truth is waiting Somewhere behind the eyes Narrates beyond the story's end Books locked from the inside And I don't think I can make this stop Though everything could change in the world up top Behind my skin blares a spoken song Though everything could change, it will echo on and on And I don't think I can make this stop Though everything could change in the world up top Behind my skin blares a spoken song Though everything could change, it will echo on and on I don't think I can make this stop Though everything could change in the world up top Behind my skin blares a spoken song Though everything could change, it will echo on and on I don't think I can make this stop Though everything could change in the world up top Behind my skin blares a spoken song Though everything could change, it will echo on and on (forever)
