Bryan Steeksma - The Galaxy's Elegant Cinema Lyrics

Trying to extricate
Myself from this poisonous vein
In the body of life
I just want out

The slow retreat and the quickening
The speed of light and the atomic spin
The more you learn you find the less you are
The dawn of it all from a dieing star

Do as i say do as your told
Be wise, dont get old
Open this door but dont walk through
Need the sun but stay on the moon

All you have to do to be amazed
Put your back to the earth and direct your eyes into space
Its proof that you are truly smaller than you feel
When it takes billions of years for light to reach this place

To look into the sky is to look at the past
An elegant cinema that is unsurpassed

So i dont expect you all to understand
In fact i know not many can
Listen when i say
This bold thought may kick your heart into starting

Starlight's journey through a timeless void
Through your eyes into your heart/mind turned into joy
Look into the sky
These bold thoughts kick your heart into starting

To look into the sky is to look at the past
An elegant cinema that is unsurpassed

Can feel so cold while the weathers warm
Can hear the ocean but i cant find the shore
Can see my feet but i cant find my shoes
I found my shoes but i dont know where i stand anymore

Removed my shades so i can drive my car
I raised my mind now i can see these scars
Live for this life cause life's so absurd
One in ten to the tenth yet hear we are
