Cibachrome Blue - Voyager

Take a voyage through the heart of darkness
 To the sound of violins
 On a sleeper train across the face of the moon
 Discover many things
 Go transatlantic, transpacific
 'Til the scales fall from your eyes
 Amplify the longing, exaggerate the heat and rise
 Paul at Damascus and Christopher Columbus
 Only found what they knew
 Close your eyes and you may find it too
 RNA and DNA in a post-ethical age
 Nothing is true
 We move like shadows across the stage
 Originator man, originator man
 Make me a sun in the palm of your hand
 A rising and setting sun
 Deflowering, 24 hours, reflowering
 Going out of fashion
 Coming back into fashion
 Catch the fruit as it falls for me
 Hang it on the tree again
 (Sunshine in the darkness)
 I guess I've come to throw some shade
 (Moving in the aftershock)
 This time I've come to pull some weight
 (Forwards through the crossfire)
 We move with hands outstretched
 Like the passionate forms we are
 Carbon based lives born in exploding stars
 (The helix and the spiral)
 Transatlantic, transpacific
 Four minutes and 33 seconds of love
 Originator man, originator man
 Make me a sun in the palm of your hand
 A rising and setting sun
 Deflowering, 24 hours, reflowering
 Going out of fashion
 Coming back into fashion
 Catch the fruit as it falls for me
 Hang it on the tree again
 A prophet predicted a space probe
 That predicted the start of a world
 An impossibly remote opportunity
 A flash of the dice in the game of chance
 Played by a lonely young girl
 Then came a messiah, a second messiah
 A third messiah then another messiah
 Then everything changed
 Signal to noise, boys will be boys
 And girls will be boys
 Increment is decrement, Christ is anti-Christ
 And so on and so on - to cry is to laugh
 There are multiplications and variations
 There is no true path
 Originator man, originator man
 Make me a sun in the palm of your hand
 A rising and setting sun
 Deflowering, 24 hours, reflowering
 Going out of fashion
 Coming back into fashion
 Catch the fruit as it falls for me
 Hang it on the tree again
 Call him cut creator, originator
 Or call him another name
 All the basking sharks on the barrier reef
 Call him The Oyster Man
 He's diving for pearls, throwing them back
 Watching the signs, making it new
 Experimental worlds
 In Cibachrome blue
 (Sunshine in the darkness)
 Take a voyage through the heart
 To the sound of violins
 On a sleeper train across the face of the moon
 Discover many things
 (Moving in the aftershock)
 Paul at Damascus and Christopher Columbus
 Only found what they knew
 Close your eyes and you may find it too
 (Forwards through the crossfire)
 We move with hands outstretched
 Like the passionate forms we are
 Carbon-based lives born in exploding stars
 (The helix and the spiral)
 Ragamuffin boy, Scheherazade
 A commonplace book of styles
 Lying in the olive grove
 God smiles
