Matter 05:25
MATTER Think of us as single small atoms Attracted and repulsed bits: electrons And protons So how come all these things just Don't fall apart? Somehow we manage to remain whole Whole… How did these atoms Come from so far? Each was made in very different stars Then this crushing gravity starts To fuse us and Chorus: I can’t believe what I’m seeing This can’t be right I was a fool Time after time Why would you give me Chance after chance It doesn’t make sense And I let my hurt self Fall down your odds Here’s my New Tomorrow Cleansing my sorrow Things fall into place I'm no longer just star fuel I transcended hydrogen Helium, lithium, nitrogen… An organic polycule An elemental hard-on We form life as we gather Far more than just some hadrons I'm Father I'm Mother Once highly energized photons Massless, went ever-further God's touch, enter Higgs Boson I'm matter I matter "E is equal to M by C squared" "E is equal to M by C squared" Hard to believe I deserve this life Is it all just chemistry? 'Cause… I can’t believe what I’m seeing This can’t be right I was a fool Time after time Why would you give me Chance after chance It doesn’t make sense And I let my hurt self Fall down your odds Here’s my New Tomorrow Cleansing my sorrow Things fall into place Oh… As I’m becoming matter Unscattered and whole Nucleosynthesis We fuse to become Some One I’m No One no more My New Tomorrow’s here

DREAMS FALLING Is this New Tomorrow? It does not quite feel or look Like I thought it would by now This is all I wanted And still I cannot stop this feeling of being a failure somehow I thought I had something That I was getting somewhere Just a matter of when Cause I knew the how Now I see it crumbling As it slips right through my hands Taken over by thoughts Of giving up All dreams are falling apart I want to keep them together For some more time All good things in my life Are eventually pushed away By me 'til they go bye-bye EpsyloN's fading-out And seems like I am going to Let it die without even trying This void is demanding Never ending hunger Always dissatisfied No matter what If there's a single chance Of ruining what I have built Be sure I'll find a way To fuck it up All dreams are falling apart I want to keep them together For some more time More time

SUPERMASSIVE ASSHOLE Wish you were just theory Instead of reality... You think you’re the center of the galaxy All of our worlds revolve Around... around... around... around your core That’s a messy eater tendency Hungry for attention, always wanting more You don’t make sense You’re so dense... Energy-eating black soul A supermassive asshole A pride so immense Your Ego Horizon clearly tells A heart that’s darker than coal A supermassive asshole You’re no rare, special Singularity One of the billions that just suck And suck and suck and suck for praise When you come close you take our light away Spitting it back as deadly Drama Rays You don’t make sense You’re so dense... Energy-eating black soul A supermassive asshole A pride so immense Your Ego Horizon clearly tells A heart that’s darker than coal A supermassive asshole The rules and laws don’t apply to you Heating us up with emotional friction Hypothetical, hypocritical A dangerous contradiction You don’t make sense You’re so dense... Energy-eating black soul A supermassive asshole A pride so immense Your Ego Horizon clearly tells A heart that’s darker than coal A supermassive asshole

THE LAST WALTZ What was the date we started this Ball? I can't remember Most things are blurred or not there at all But you won't surrender There I go Not alone nor On my own But I don't think I can do this Anymore Please hold my hand once again 'cause I know that I'm draining away So let's dance the last waltz Grief in my head Tears like rain I can't hold them You're fading away So let's dance the last waltz I'm in the hands of this mind-theft Broken-in, plundered I'm holding to the few things left That are still there And in those thoughts We are still young Blessed in the love we had I wonder what more could I've done for you I wonder what have I done in life Words never said Words I wanted you to hear Words I wanted to say There I go All alone On my own Then it sinks It’s the end of us Forevermore Please hold my hand once again 'cause I know that I'm draining away So let's dance the last waltz Grief in my head Tears like rain I can't hold them You're fading away So let's dance the last waltz The last remains of what I was Float in the darkness An empty shell without a cause I beg you, make it stop "And as the power turns off everything is emptiness There is no tunnel, no light It feels like the vastness of space that I gazed as a child" So I rise to the sky Like a star… This is how I die..
