Here I am, I am writing it down
The answers to our questions, and they are quite profound
And you're standing there, telling me to come back around
When the mysteries of the universe are all sorted out
You light a cigarette, "I thought that you quit?"
You respond with a grin, "Well, we're not really here
But you should still set the scene"
So I put us in one childhood home or another
And my sister appears and then so does our brother
We step into the night, the stars stretching the sky
It's our place in the desert and we begin to fly above it
♪
Why do you always make me meet you in here?
You tell me like a secret, make me wanna keep it
I will, yes, of course, I will find you again
You're so real, I could reach out and snatch that apple from your hand
When you show up like this, I wanna touch you all over
But you don't give me no bite to satisfy this hunger
You think, "Hey, it's my dream, it don't need to be obscene"
But at the very least, well, it could be a little sweet
'Cause even in my dreams, you are pulling on the strings
And by you, I mean me, and you'd better believe I'm pulling them tight
But tucked into this heavenly night
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Some days the world is a beautiful brain
That I cannot understand, that I cannot penetrate
So I sing its refrain
I live inside my unrealized art
And the wolves of my want circle the beat of my heart
Some days I awake outside of everything
At the limits of my life, then I can't find a way in
On a morning this bright, I'm on the passenger side
I'm just choosin' the music we'll have for the ride
