lyrics

Saved some pictures of the moon
Because I'd love to go.
When the room spins from boredom,
I close my eyes and float.
A celestial perfection
Crafted long ago.
Pure as driven snow,
A ball of the smoothest dough.
A lunar day begins,
Separate from our sins.
Spinning to and fro
With breath held and eyes closed

Well it's quite a view from here,
Some two-thousand years of fear.
I wonder would it make you sad
If judgment day was near?
The context is obscene,
Taking psalms like dramamine.
The time melts right past
While the rain peels away the ash.
Feeling sick in reality:
Escapism rescue me.

Give me my own time
To grasp frantically at twigs
And to realize that I am
As rooted as they are.
I will pace these ten steps,
I will listen to these sounds,
I will wonder if they're here:
Up above, or down below.
That rumbling outside
Must be in my mind.
Can you hear me when I think?
If I offended you, blink twice.

Insignificant violent moods.
Seeing creatures file in twos.
Critical heartbreak ensues.
Throw the book and the spirit too.
When the window reveals too much,
and explodes through mental touch,
Lay down to avoid the rush,
Writing prophesies in the dust.
And in rare moments like these
I can picture with ease
Why they dreamed up this biblical goal,
Something that can save the soul.
I guess I've always felt this way,
Abroad or when locked away,
I know I'm only making a scene
For my sense of self esteem.
