[Intro: Scene One, red planet landing, jet propellers, hydraulic hiss, robot servos, ticking begins] [Verse 1: hushed wonder, mechanical clanks, organ drone low] I build myself up To sail through the weather I spend the days trying To make myself feel better Round the serpentine Empty conversations I’m not impressed by anyone [Instrumental: gritty breakbeat builds like a dance battle opening] [Break: sudden cut to silence, one tick, distant animal call] [Pre-Chorus: Scene Two, alien jungle, strange animal calls, African hand drums, glitch percussion] Friends say I’m anxiously attached yeah Attached yeah And ketamine won’t numb My passion for ya I hope you know That what you hold Is a diamond With a heart of gold [Chorus: jungle polyrhythm full, voice opens, long held notes] Wash over like me a waterfall Do what you want Just don’t let me go Until the Moon finally Gives into the sun Look in your eyes And they tell me one thing That we should be more than friends The universe conspired for us To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way [Verse 2: jungle thins, ticking returns, drone rising] I pay my bills Got a house in the hills Call up the Red Cross Yeah, I’ma volunteer I do it all for you And you just break me dear Throw away our history We could start from here [Bridge: strings rise, sound of distant water growing louder] Oo-oo the time is running out Oo-oo reach out and feel me know Oo-oo we’ll shoot into the sky Oo-oo we’ll shoot into the sky [Final Chorus: Scene Three, floating islands, thousand waterfalls, full orchestra, longest awestruck held notes] Wash over like me a waterfall Do what you want Just don’t let me go Until the Moon finally gives into the sun Look in your eyes And they tell me one thing That we should be more than friends The universe conspired for us To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way To meet this way Meet this way, meet this way [Outro: slow fade, ticking and roaring water, unresolved] [End]
