Jupiter Ascending Verse 1 They say that time is everything The most valuable thing you own So build yourself a longer life And never die alone More knowledge More experience More centuries to see A thousand worlds inside your mind A million things to be And for a moment I can understand The hunger to transcend To stretch beyond the limits And keep discovering the end But then I see the pearl And something starts to change What good is endless consciousness If someone else must pay? Chorus Jupiter ascending Climbing through the spheres Chasing after forever While feeding on the years How much can you take Before you realize You can’t consume eternity And call yourself divine? Jupiter ascending Up and up they go But if you feed upon the light How much do you really know? Verse 2 The pearl becomes the symbol Of everything that’s wrong One living source of endless light Being harvested for more An empire built on lifetimes A kingdom built on breath Turning somebody else’s life Into another’s immortality Succubus That’s what I see When hunger eats the host When consciousness forgets itself And thinks it needs the most Chorus Jupiter ascending Climbing through the spheres Chasing after forever While feeding on the years How much can you take Before you realize You can’t consume eternity And call yourself divine? Verse 3 And then I watch these movies And I see us looking back Lizards in the shadows Aliens between the cracks Maybe it’s just fiction Maybe it’s just a dream Maybe quantum realities Are fighting underneath Maybe every level Is another point of view Maybe every universe Is learning something new I don’t know the answer And I don’t pretend I do Some doors aren’t mine to open Till I’m passing through Bridge This is a dreamscape A temporary room A little flash of consciousness Before we make our move You’re here to experience I’m here to experience We’re here to expand Every individual story Becomes part of something grand Breakdown So what if time isn’t something That we have to steal? What if eternity isn’t something That we have to make real? What if every moment Is already enough? What if consciousness expands When we learn to love the stuff That isn’t ours to own? Final Chorus Jupiter ascending The circle’s coming round Everything we thought was lost Is coming back around No one owns the light No one owns the flame We’re temporary travelers Learning through the game Jupiter ascending I can see the bend The circle keeps on turning It begins It breaks It grows And it begins again Outro Maybe that’s eternity Not living forever But learning forever Through every form Every life Every story The circle comes around And I can see it Rounding the bend.
