๐ Lyrics
You can make a plan
Carve it into stone
Like a feather falling
It is still unknown
Until the clock speaks up
Says it's time to go
You can choose the high
Or the lower road
You might clench your fist
You might fork your tongue
As you curse or praise
All the things you've done
And the faders move
And the music dies
As we pass over
On the arc of time
So you'll nurse your love like a wounded dove
In the covered cage of night
Every star is crossed by phrenetic thoughts
They separate and then collide
And they twist like sheets 'til you fall asleep
They finally unwind
It's a black balloon, it's a dream you'll soon deny
I hear if you make friends
With good old Jesus Christ
You can get right up
From that chalk outline
Then you'll get dolled up
And you'll dress in white
All to take your place
In his chorus line
And then in you'll come with those marching drums
In a saintly compromise
No more whiskey slurs, no more blonde hair girls
For your whole eternal life
And you'll do the dance that was choreographed
At the very dawn of time
Singing, "I told you, son, the day would come
You would die, you would die
You would die, you would die"
To the deepest part of the human heart
The fear of death expands
'Til we crack the code we've always known
But could never understand
On a circuit board, we'll soon be born again, again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again
Carve it into stone
Like a feather falling
It is still unknown
Until the clock speaks up
Says it's time to go
You can choose the high
Or the lower road
You might clench your fist
You might fork your tongue
As you curse or praise
All the things you've done
And the faders move
And the music dies
As we pass over
On the arc of time
So you'll nurse your love like a wounded dove
In the covered cage of night
Every star is crossed by phrenetic thoughts
They separate and then collide
And they twist like sheets 'til you fall asleep
They finally unwind
It's a black balloon, it's a dream you'll soon deny
I hear if you make friends
With good old Jesus Christ
You can get right up
From that chalk outline
Then you'll get dolled up
And you'll dress in white
All to take your place
In his chorus line
And then in you'll come with those marching drums
In a saintly compromise
No more whiskey slurs, no more blonde hair girls
For your whole eternal life
And you'll do the dance that was choreographed
At the very dawn of time
Singing, "I told you, son, the day would come
You would die, you would die
You would die, you would die"
To the deepest part of the human heart
The fear of death expands
'Til we crack the code we've always known
But could never understand
On a circuit board, we'll soon be born again, again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again
