A man named Edison
He made the phonograph
Out of Aluminum
Then later out of wax
It cuts a melody
And destroys it as it plays
It cuts a melody
So enjoy it as it plays
Do you believe the moon is stealing her luminescence
Do you concede our world is reeling through vast expanses
Oh yes we might just be a momentary lapse, or happenstance

Gravity Is So Weak
03:09
|

gravity
is so weak
and our universe is so large
but it keeps our world in an ellipse
around our star
for it doesn't decay and it won't give in
and it is not opposed and it's always within
lik god's voice
so soft, so soft that i don't hear it speak
in my dreams in my thoughts, my thoughts
in the quiet that i keep
but it doesn't decay and it won't give in
for it is not opposed and it's always within
like our love so soft, so soft that i don't hear it speak
in my dreams in my thoughts, my thoughts
in the quiet that i keep
but it doesn't decay and it won't give in
for it is not opposed and it's always within
like our love
so soft that you don't feel it live
in each breath in each thought each thought
in the surface of our skin
gravity doesn't decay and it won't give in
for it is not opposed and it's always within
like our love
like our love
like our love
like our love
like our love our love our love

I Was A Member Of A Set
02:11

how the stars move
the multitudes prove
how timing pulls apart us humans
who would be healers
priests or teachers
oh the key turns
somehow we're neither
i was a member of a set
i could be counted with the ones that i collect
as the self does
what's less selfless
what am i to pay these bills with
and where's my woman
for she'll bear witness
to the wounds which bloodless
bleed this business
i was a member of a set
i could be counted with the ones that i collect
i was a member of a set
i will be counted with the ones that i collect

Return to me Charlie
Through your portal in the sky
Your signal is getting weaker
Oh you haven't got much time
It's time for your transporter
Return to me Charlie
Your ship is losing speed
The air supply is leaking
The transporter is what you need
It's time for your transporter
It's time for your transporter
It's time for your transporter
It's time for your transporter

Ambulance
05:37
|

my love with your human shape
hold my arm where it perforates
come any closer i'll breach your fortress
hold my arm
our love shines like strobe lights here in the ambulance
two sparks in this starry heap
radiate they burn in effigy
my how we're only dead so slightly
hold my arm
our love shines like strobe lights here in the ambulance
this day we shared a galaxy
and our love how it bleeds and bleeds
tonight when we're only dressed so slightly
hold my arm
our love shines like strobe lights here in the ambulance

Mark The Ground

mark the ground mark the lead
mark the space in-between
and the spark whose arc the path completes
mark the ground mark the lead
does the grave know her ghost
does the worm know her host
what do we compose as we decompose
does the grave know her ghost
mark this man mark his peace
mark where he did overreach
and the spark whose arc the path completes
mark the ground mark the lead

Astro Me

i could never own a dog
and take him on a space walk
i could never own a fish
and keep her in the petri dish
and i could never own a cat
in zero-g imagine that
i could never own a dog
my life goes up and down
my thrusters push a million pounds
and everything is very light
and all my food is freeze-dried
and everything is very hard
and everything is full of stars
and the dark between parts
to be
or astro not to be
astro me
astro me

so bright
blessed with unusual beauty, too

proud that i knew you when
the times
the time when i was so dead wrong
it's alright
we're finally moving on
and now
a married woman
ooo
i'm proud
proud that i knew you when
