Superpositions Songtext
von Elway

My God, eternity′s a bore
Stuck between the strands, I'll die before
A dust speck dropped in the event horizon
In the last place that the sun will never rise on
An artifact of folding space and time

I′m a random collision
Shiftin' superpositions
Well, I'm here or not, or both or none
Until my choice is all I′ve got
I′m a lie by omission

Despite myself, I've found joy
Cobbled from the things that I destroyed
I walk across a million intersections
Peeled off in a million new directions
A bettter use for all this space and time


I′m a random collision
Shiftin' superpositions
Well, I′m here or not, or both or none
And baskin' in the uncertain
Fire in constant transmission

For peace, bread, and roses
Stay in love ′til it's hopeless
Spit your heart into the very eye of God
And bite off all you can chew
Risk it all on what still moves you
On the off chance all of this is someday gone

Be the piston still in motion
Swim in every goddamn ocean
Stay afloat like a lingering mirage
If the stars do conspire
Pull 'em down, keep the fire
Don′t forget to share everything you got

For peace, bread, and roses
Stay in love ′til hopeless
Spit your heart into the very eye of God
Bite off all you can chew
Risk it all on what still moves you
On the off chance all of this is someday gone
