Once Was One

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Of all of us he had to know, he'd never grow He'd never climb, he'd never love like the love I know When I was two and he was ten, they carried me Through holograms, they twisted into cosmic seas [Pre-Chorus] Once was born in light like you Once was one but now am two When I was born of love like you When you were ten and I was two [Chorus] There were two monkeys talking, sounding like little dogs They were barking and bitching about what was wrong In the world, we were just spacemen taking a ride Gorilla's in his human suit, reciting his lines, singing [Post-Chorus] We all, we all, we all turn on We all, we all, we all turn off [Verse 2] If gathering is all we need to change the wind For anything to die, it needs first to begin [Pre-Chorus] Once was born in light like you Once was one but now am two When I was born of love like you When you were ten and I was two [Chorus] There were two monkeys talking, sounding like little dogs They were barking and bitching about what was wrong In the world, we were just spacemen taking a ride Gorilla's in his human suit, reciting his lines, singing [Post-Chorus] We all, we all, we all turn on We all, we all, we all turn off In time [Bridge] Saw your future's not burning so bright But if we live too long, there's love like mine [Interlude] We all, we all, we all turn on We all, we all, we all turn off [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] There were two monkeys talking, sounding like little dogs They were barking and bitching about what was wrong In the world, we were just spacemen taking a ride Gorilla's in his human suit, reciting his lines, singing [Post-Chorus] We all, we all, we all turn on We all, we all, we all turn off In time [Verse 3] If human breed hate, love and lies would be traits of mine But I was of the future, past and present time [Outro] Once was born in light like you Once was one but now am two When I was born of love like you When you were ten and I was two
