Cibachrome Blue - Momus.mp3

[00:00.00] Take a voyage through the heart of darkness
[00:08.52]To the sound of violins
[00:11.10]On a sleeper train across the face of the moon
[00:13.77]Discover many things
[00:16.14]Go transatlantic, transpacific
[00:18.66]'Til the scales fall from your eyes
[00:21.51]Amplify the longing, exaggerate the heat and rise
[00:26.64]Paul at Damascus and Christopher Columbus
[00:29.19]Only found what they knew
[00:31.77]Close your eyes and you may find it too
[00:34.41]RNA and DNA in a post-ethical age
[00:41.76]Nothing is true
[00:42.87]We move like shadows across the stage
[00:46.86]Originator man, originator man
[00:49.32]Make me a sun in the palm of your hand
[00:53.04]A rising and setting sun
[00:55.26]Deflowering, 24 hours, reflowering
[01:00.12]Going out of fashion
[01:01.17]Coming back into fashion
[01:02.37]Catch the fruit as it falls for me
[01:04.26]Hang it on the tree again
[01:06.15](Sunshine in the darkness)
[01:09.99]I guess I've come to throw some shade
[01:12.81](Moving in the aftershock)
[01:20.10]This time I've come to pull some weight
[01:22.62](Forwards through the crossfire)
[01:28.17]We move with hands outstretched
[01:29.70]Like the passionate forms we are
[01:32.40]Carbon based lives born in exploding stars
[01:35.70](The helix and the spiral)
[01:37.86]Transatlantic, transpacific
[01:40.26]Four minutes and 33 seconds of love
[01:47.61]Originator man, originator man
[01:50.19]Make me a sun in the palm of your hand
[01:53.82]A rising and setting sun
[01:56.04]Deflowering, 24 hours, reflowering
[02:00.90]Going out of fashion
[02:01.92]Coming back into fashion
[02:03.15]Catch the fruit as it falls for me
[02:05.25]Hang it on the tree again
[02:07.86]A prophet predicted a space probe
[02:10.17]That predicted the start of a world
[02:12.72]An impossibly remote opportunity
[02:15.42]A flash of the dice in the game of chance
[02:17.82]Played by a lonely young girl
[02:20.43]Then came a messiah, a second messiah
[02:22.95]A third messiah then another messiah
[02:25.32]Then everything changed
[02:28.02]Signal to noise, boys will be boys
[02:30.39]And girls will be boys
[02:33.42]Increment is decrement, Christ is anti-Christ
[02:35.73]And so on and so on - to cry is to laugh
[02:38.04]There are multiplications and variations
[02:43.14]There is no true path
[02:48.39]Originator man, originator man
[02:50.97]Make me a sun in the palm of your hand
[02:54.69]A rising and setting sun
[02:56.82]Deflowering, 24 hours, reflowering
[03:01.71]Going out of fashion
[03:02.73]Coming back into fashion
[03:03.99]Catch the fruit as it falls for me
[03:06.06]Hang it on the tree again
[03:18.51]Call him cut creator, originator
[03:21.27]Or call him another name
[03:23.58]All the basking sharks on the barrier reef
[03:26.37]Call him The Oyster Man
[03:28.80]He's diving for pearls, throwing them back
[03:31.47]Watching the signs, making it new
[03:33.87]Experimental worlds
[03:35.76]In Cibachrome blue
[03:37.47](Sunshine in the darkness)
[03:40.02]Take a voyage through the heart
[03:41.37]To the sound of violins
[03:43.86]On a sleeper train across the face of the moon
[03:46.53]Discover many things
[03:47.94](Moving in the aftershock)
[03:49.71]Paul at Damascus and Christopher Columbus
[03:51.78]Only found what they knew
[03:54.45]Close your eyes and you may find it too
[03:57.36](Forwards through the crossfire)
[03:59.85]We move with hands outstretched
[04:01.65]Like the passionate forms we are
[04:04.35]Carbon-based lives born in exploding stars
[04:07.86](The helix and the spiral)
[04:09.90]Ragamuffin boy, Scheherazade
[04:11.73]A commonplace book of styles
[04:14.55]Lying in the olive grove
[04:16.41]God smiles
