Know the Stars

[Verse 1] Draw the point in dust One spark, one start Circle from the line Truth in the arc Square to the ground Root to the span Triangle speaks first Three is the plan Measure the breath Before you move Ancient little rules Under your shoe Fold of the seed Shell in the stone Small as a bead Big as the dome [Pre-Chorus] Keep it plain Keep it clean Line by line You’ll see what I mean Turn that key Trace that frame Every shape Says the same name [Chorus] Know the stars Know the stars Point to the fire Where the patterns are (know the stars) Know the stars Know the stars From little stones To the temple bars (know the stars) [Verse 2] Hex in the hive Salt in the crust Spiral in the shell Dust in the dust Cut with intent Not a random knife Every old mark Got a hidden life Center holds still While the world swings wide Angles in the blood Can’t be denied If you want proof Look at a pine Look at the bone Look at the vine [Pre-Chorus] Keep it plain Keep it clean Line by line You’ll see what I mean Turn that key Trace that frame Every shape Says the same name [Chorus] Know the stars Know the stars Point to the fire Where the patterns are (know the stars) Know the stars Know the stars From little stones To the temple bars (know the stars) [Bridge] Three becomes one Then one makes ten Back to the source Then back again I paint my map In the dark with chalk You read the curve I read the arc [Chorus] Know the stars Know the stars Point to the fire Where the patterns are (know the stars) Know the stars Know the stars From little stones To the temple bars (know the stars)
