Standing Still Songtext
von Bruce Evans

If I measured you with a telescope
Would you be at apogee
If I bent your light through a prism′s slope
Are you moving away from me

I don't see you standing still

If your song′s played through an oscilloscope
Would your notes be out of key
Split your beam through a slit machine
To collapse your probability

I don't see you standing still
But the rest of us will
Standing still
Because it's all downhill
When you′re standing still


Standing still
We′re quantum tangled
Just to simplify
And I will
Still be stuck in gravity
As you streak by

If I messaged you through a polygraph
Would it tell me that you're true
If I put your heart through the same device
Would it indicate we′re through

I don't see you standing still

All these ripples travel out through time
From all the things you do
Apart from you
Like a particle
But I′m still a part of you

I don't see you standing still
But the rest of us will
Standing still
Because it′s all downhill
When you're standing still
