lyrics

I wanna live my life outside of me
I wanna be a flyin' machine
I wanna have my air for free
I wanna give so I can receive

So many souls and radio waves
They don't collide, they don't decay

I wanna live my life outside of me
I wanna be a flyin' machine
I wanna crush my toes in the sand
I wanna shove my guts in the land

So many souls and radio waves
None of them collide, none of them decay


My shadows seem fine
like a dark studio
hiding
from the world of light.

They live on
cracked concrete
emanate from my cracked
skin
time cracks
anything with a beginning
and it all has
a beginning.

Worlds of the past show
up one by one so
faint and pointless
yet I consider them
for hours, amazed

about the short distances
they traversed, distances to me
which are eternal and untouchable.

Through the space-ocean
we speak
with our minds and the feelings
they fill
our bodies with.
