Lyrics

[Verse 1] Just imagine a time and place Sentient objects adrift in space Trying to do the needful math Trying to find the secret path [Chorus 1] Seas gone silent in the spiral shell When you fell [Verse 2] Blazing torches to light the way All fuel burned right up in just one day Will there be another way? That won't be for you to say [Chorus 2] You who took with you the ancient spell When you fell [Bridge] Hurt too hard too long and die too young Silver dollar glistening on your tongue [Verse 3] May your passage be assured There may your foul afflictions all be cured Systems closing down on several fronts You will always have been here once [Chorus 3] Cap the west's final wildcat well When you fell
