lyrics

fluidity is a concept
you need to understand to grasp
my perception of the trajectory of the gaze
across the passage of time
and how much of it is in your mind
and how much of it is in the space-time continuum
on which you rely
and upon which everything depends

how long ago
was it decided
that this wouldn't be permitted
and so we would be divided
and the laws that make it so are etched into my mind
and they keep me locked within the space-time continuum
i will be denied
anything that could ever make me satisfied

how long
how long
will we look out the window
how long

how long
how long
will we look at it sideways
averting each other's gaze

how long
how long
how long
how long
how long
how long
how long
how long
