Spacetime Fairytale
I woke up with you in my head
Like a melody to sing in bed
I should get up, but I instead
Make a face you used to make
I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I know there's no such thing as turning back
The fairy tale's begun
So, listen up, my son
The pages may have burned
But words can just return
All of time spans
All of space spans
All of light spans
All our life spans
My mind is full of melodies
They search for homes inside of me
Like begging, pleading refugees
But I can't find the time
I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I try to calm and still the rising tide
Keep listening, my son
'Cause the story just goes on
Each time a theory proves
The mystery just moves
Time moves slower
Round your feet
Find slow time
Breathe and feel the beat of
Time moves slower
Round your feet
Find slow time
Breathe and feel the beat of time
This world began outside of time
Some days its yours, some days it's mine
Some days it's cruel, some days it's kind
It just can't stay the same
I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I try to sing a melody your way
The story must go on
So, keep listening, my son
And if you get too tired
Just build a little fire
The pages they may burn
But words can just return
Pages burn but words return
Just watch the flames and you will learn
Pages burn but words return
Just watch the flames and you will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
Like a melody to sing in bed
I should get up, but I instead
Make a face you used to make
I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I know there's no such thing as turning back
The fairy tale's begun
So, listen up, my son
The pages may have burned
But words can just return
All of time spans
All of space spans
All of light spans
All our life spans
My mind is full of melodies
They search for homes inside of me
Like begging, pleading refugees
But I can't find the time
I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I try to calm and still the rising tide
Keep listening, my son
'Cause the story just goes on
Each time a theory proves
The mystery just moves
Time moves slower
Round your feet
Find slow time
Breathe and feel the beat of
Time moves slower
Round your feet
Find slow time
Breathe and feel the beat of time
This world began outside of time
Some days its yours, some days it's mine
Some days it's cruel, some days it's kind
It just can't stay the same
I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I try to sing a melody your way
The story must go on
So, keep listening, my son
And if you get too tired
Just build a little fire
The pages they may burn
But words can just return
Pages burn but words return
Just watch the flames and you will learn
Pages burn but words return
Just watch the flames and you will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
