We exist because stars explode
We become because the world moulds
We have faith in our dying star
We carry the world in muck and tar

We took awhile to bridge the gap
We lost the keys and burned the map
At a time we were a world set free
Now we spiral far too complacently

We were gods of soul and mind
We now are lost and hard to find
We hid our hearts behind a shield
But this digital age refuses to yield

We live in a world of Blood and Sap
We drip too slow and often snap
We dull our minds with harsh narcotics
and far too often become neurotics

We live among our mother moon
We dodge the sun and sleep till noon
We love because we drink the sea
We loved you and you loved me

Gravity always dragged us here
Now I speak wisdom and
You speak fear
