Newton’s law

I am understanding gravity - I want to float away, but I keep falling

Storm clouds are circling - the vultures lick their chops
The world is spinning, colors fade - can’t tell which way is up

Scale mountains endlessly - hideout in the trees Camouflaging everything everyone knows of me
I’ve been trying to disappear - be gone before the storm But my invisibility, it only works when I’m asleep

I am understanding gravity - I wish someone had told me before
I am understanding gravity - I want to float away, but I just keep on falling

It’s a 9.81 meter fall for every second, squared
Terminal velocity - I’m floating in the air
Got no parachute, no safety net - not way up here
Close my eyes and count to three as trees and buildings come to me

I am understanding gravity - I wish someone had told me before
I am understanding gravity - I want to float away, but I just keep on falling

I am understanding gravity - I wish someone had told me before
I am understanding gravity - I want to float away, but I keep falling

I am understanding gravity - I wish someone had told me before
I am understanding gravity - I want to float away, but I just keep on falling


ELECTRON

I’m an electron - drawn to your positive energy
Electron - you and I can make electricity
Electron - drawn to your positive energy
Electron - you and I can make electricity

Don’t short me out ‘cause I think we’ve got potential
Don’t short me out - I don’t want to come down to the ground

I’m an electron - drawn to your positive energy
Electron - you and I can make electricity
Electron - drawn to your positive energy
Electron - you and I can make electricity

If you were a proton, we’d get Hydrogen
If we each brought a friend, we’d float away and make funny sounds with our voices

Electron, proton, proton, electron, electron, proton, and neutron, neutron
Electron, and proton, and proton, electron, electron, and proton, and neutron, neutron
Electron, and proton, and proton, electron, electron, and proton
Everybody’s got their quarks

Don’t short me out ‘cause I think we’ve got potential
Don’t short me out - I don’t want to come down to the ground
Don’t short me out ‘cause I think we’ve got potential
Don’t short me out - I don’t want to come down to the ground

I’m an electron - drawn to your positive energy
Electron - you and I can make electricity
Electron - drawn to your positive energy
Electron - you and I can make electricity

Electron, electron, electron
I’m an electron - you and I can make electricity


A YEAR + 1 DAY

[guy]: I’ll be here - writing my own symphony
[gal]: And you’ll be here - holding dear right on to me
[both]: We’ve got everything we need, creating our our history And if that boat begins to leave, I’ll wait for you

[gal]: I’ll be here - painting my own masterpiece
[guy]: And I will swear you are better than Matisse
[both]: You’ll smile and disagree; time will stop for two or three And if that time begins to leave, I’ll wait for you

A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever

[guy]: I’ll be here - calculating everything
[gal]: And I’ll be here - pretending I’m listening [both]: Apathy and entropy, heated ambiguity I’ll get in my time machine and wait for you

[gal]: I’ll be here explaining all of history
[guy]: Then I’ll be here - close my eyes and make believe
[both]: We’re two bonsai maple leaves, just changing colors easily If I start falling from the tree, I’ll wait for you

A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever

A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever A year and a day is forever


Everywhere in Between

If I change the way I am If I take that leap of faith If I’m game and I buy in
Will I be here again?

If I hope for wishful things
If I change the future now
If I’m tearing down the walls
Will I be here again?

I know somewhere there’s a place I exist
And I know I’m doing fine because I’ve been there before
Neither here nor there, but everywhere in between, and we all sing

If I sell my soul for time
If I’m nothing all the same If I’m everywhere at once
Will I be here again?

I know somewhere there’s a place I exist
And I know I’m doing fine because I’ve been there before
Neither here nor there, but everywhere in between, and we all sing

We live under rainbows crashing together wherever they are If we forget everything that’s been taught us about us
We’ll find out who we are

We are all together
We are one and the same
For the bright and the stormy weather
And the clouds, yeah the clouds - they know my name


THROW ME A LINE

I am sinking to the bottom of the ocean floor
Losing all the feeling in the tips of all my toes
Lungs collapse as things go black - the world swallows me whole
Quiet and so calming as my heart begins to slow

Won’t somebody please throw me a line Hey, maybe I’ll hold - I’ll hold on this time
Won’t somebody please throw me a line Hey, maybe I’ll hold - I’ll hold on this time
This time

I tumble head over heels - land five feet under snow
Upside down or right side up - the world won’t let me know
Pain subsides where snow resides as numb replaces cold
Quiet and so calming as my heart begins to slow

Won’t somebody please throw me a line Hey, maybe I’ll hold - I’ll hold on this time
Won’t somebody please throw me a line Hey, maybe I’ll hold - I’ll hold on this time

Well, I’ll hold out my hand Pull me from this quicksand

Won’t somebody please throw me a line Hey, maybe I’ll hold - I’ll hold on this time
Won’t somebody please throw me a line Hey, maybe I’ll hold - I’ll hold on this time
