Three Steps Songtext
von the Microphones

Step 1: Swim out and dive down and face the fear of the seemingly
Bottomless black of underwater. Imagine that it′s endless, but know
There's a sandy bottom not far. Step 2: Flip around out in the water
And look up, facing the fear of even acknowledging the true endless
Black, with its bright spots and invisible black spots shimmering
Towards you through great distances. Step 3: Now, the ultimate in
Depth. Get out of the water, go home, close your eyes until you fall Asleep and notice the thick black haze set in, but also see the
Bright spots of dreams shimmering out of the depth, and imagine how
True and endless that abyss is, and how there are
Distant invisible dreams behind the ones you can see
And how those bright spots are still there when you
Awake, just obscured like starlight in a blue noon sky
