Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Some plans were made and rice was thrown A house was built, a baby born How time can move both fast and slow amazes me And so I raise my glass to symmetry To the second hand and its accuracy To the actual size of everything The desert is the sand You can't hold it in your hand It won't bow to your demands There's no difference you can make There's no difference you can make And if it seems like an accident A collage of senselessness You weren't looking hard enough I wasn't looking hard enough An argument for consciousness The instinct of the blind insect Who makes love to the flowerbad And dies in the first freeze I want to learn such simple things No politics, no history So what I want and what I need Can finally be the same I just got myself to blame Give everything up to fate When there's choices I can make When there's choices I can make Now my heart needs a polygraph I'm so eager to pack my bags When I really want to stay The arc of time, the stench of sex The innocence you can't protect Each quarter note, each marble step Walk up and down that lonely treble clef Each one and the next one Each one and the next one to arrive An argument for consciousness The instinct of the blind insect Who never thinks not to accept His faith, that's faith There's happiness in death You get to the next one You get to the next on down the line When levity, I'm longing that It steals each dream inside my head My morning water don't forget On silver stars I wish and wish and wish From one to the next one From one to the next right down the line
