The Astronomer Lyrics

Cloverlift The Astronomer

I hear the numbers fall
I see the stars above me
They call me

They seem to stand so tall
My mind deceives my body
I'm sorry

The countdown of my heartbeat
Indicates it's time to go

Taking off
This vague illusion of
A word we used to know

Not falling for
The fake conclusion of
A story never told (Inside us all)

Oh dear astronomer
Is this the right dimension
You mentioned?

Extinction is what's fair
Survival is exception
Invasion

A sea of clouds below me
As your voice becomes my own

Taking off
This vague illusion of
A word we used to know

Not falling for
The fake conclusion of
A story never told (Inside us all)

This twisted paradox
Of answers I have lost
It seems to have no meaning

We're just a speck of dust
And universe a box
Where I can't find my feelings

(Taking off
This vague illusion of
A word we used to know)

Engines roar
Begin ascension
Leave all stories on the floor

For past is lost
In conversations
With the voices that we holdinside us all.
