Lyrics

Are you missin' us, maybe wantin' to be kissin' us
And if you must, please don't be dismissin' us
And when we're gone bailin' on the bus
Are we immersed in a sea of replicas?
Hard exteriors and fake gold fronts
Losing yourself in the flavor of the month
Gotta be a better reason to colonize a star
Gotta be a better reason man's come so far
Is that you in the mama-ocean-people-sea?
Is that you in this dream I see wavin' me?
Closer with one hand
While the other shields your eyes as if surprised to see the universe begin
Bein' up on the mindspin
Are you still glad that it has been
Six years and seven months?
This is what you want, don't front
I'm feelin' it right now
In this, the gold hour
Part clock and part man
Reconcilin' my life span
Keep things whole, movin' out of the space where air flows
When all of a sudden, here we are and here we go
The evolutionary mind turns twists backflips
In space-time the continuum, real-life planetarium
It's a natural fact, time is speeding up, there isn't much left
Heart rate increasin' bustin' through your chest
Compressed is your life in the physical but out of memory
Comes a vision which is a miracle, yeah, that
Normally we just can't see
It's not natural or typical of our same old thing
Livin' too fast, unable to grasp the past
Or the future, when at last we ripple after the big splash
Bein' up on the mindspin
Are you still glad that it has been
Six years and seven months?
This is what you want, don't front
I'm feelin' it right now
In this, the gold hour
Part clock and part man
Reconcilin' my life span
You remain and refrain from the pain of wasted time
Last thing on my mind is
Runnin' high, fuel supply, reason why we just don't quit
Can you get with a
Meldin' of two minds (Melding of two minds)
What's the worst thing you could find? (Worst thing you could find)
Paper trail that prevails
In demystification
People (people)
Want to believe (want to believe) in mysteries
People (people)
Want to believe (want to believe) in mysteries
The truth so bad (so bad)?
Is the truth so bad (so bad)?
The truth so bad (so bad)?
Is the truth so bad (so bad)?
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
