Up and down, you walk as a stranger here
And hide your most charming fear underground
Trying to see the truth right in front of you
Yet beauty has blinded you, kept you from discovery
Foolish man! Don't ignore that there's only one flavor more
Just one step between you and six on your quantum crucifix
If you want to chase the tiny miracle that haunts you
Then pick up your electron microscope
And channel your deepest hope
Have I offended? Let me rephrase:
See the top? The view looks so lonely there
Your method teaches you not to care
Still, you can't stop
Until you've saved mankind, squashed the plague
Caused your own heart to break
What do you think you will find?
No, three quarks for Muster Mark weren't enough
To lift the dark veil of elementary shame
From the bottom of your atomic game
Look ahead, man: don't you see that the legions of dead can
Remember your genius for centuries?
All it takes is your novelty
Truth and beauty
So strange, so charming
