Oh, take of the fruit, but guard the seed

[D3 for LU]

I incline myself to space
There was no ghost on the moor
No open window
No monkey's paw

[D3 for LU]

There in the mist, you asked me
"Did you forget I exist?"
I said, "Yes"
'Cause you played too hard to get

[D3 for LU]

The Buddha of the modern age
Is barely paid minimum wage
To dole out truth and healthy karma
The same he gave to our forefathers

[D3 for LU]

When once we reached to touch the sky
Now we have no need to try
The blurred photos of ghosts of men
Such permanence, we don't comprehend

[D3 for LU]

Slaughter the sacred cow
To stuff our stupid mouths
Already fit to burst through the insatiable thirst
To kill over and over

[D3 for LU]

We interlopers, the inferior species
Wallow in our own feces
Gazing down at our navels
And no longer able
To find some kind of perspective

[D3 for LU]

Amongst all the invective glory
In pathways of dopamine, until time intervenes
Rabble struck down, dementia or overcome
Stampeding, but we have no need to try

[D3 for LU]

Her shopping bag broke, sending eggs and flour crashing
Down to the ground, just like star clusters smashing
But no one will give her a glance
They just shuffle on home in a trance
The tiniest lives fill their hives up with worry
To make it to church, well, she'll need to hurry
When late, she will bow down contrite
While a meteor turns out the light

[D3 for LU]

And there, in an ordinary street
A car isn't where it would normally be
The driver in tears, 'bout his payment arrears
Still, nobody hears, when a sun disappears in a galaxy afar

[D3 for LU]

First day of the new job, and he was so nervous
The suit and the platitude, "Can I be of service?"
His boss made him clean all the cars
While he wondered, "Is there life on Mars?"
And meanwhile, the stars line themselves up in order
While we bicker on with our fences and borders
But best not to think about that
It's better to live without facts

[D3 for LU]

And now in her old wedding bed
A lady will dream that her husband is dead
Of course he's alive, he'll be home around five
Still, silence arrives, when a nebula dives into our Milky Way

[D3 for LU]

The thunder and rain start, the paving stones melt
And oddly the first spots make Orion's Belt
As you queue at the bank for an hour
'Cause a solar flare blew out the power
The nurse in the care home now empties a bathtub
The water will spiral, a galaxy's vast hub
Is draining away as we speak
But she loses her job there next week

[D3 for LU]

And there with his first telescope
A teenager stands full of hormones and hope
As he squints at the night, like a painting of light
He doesn't suppose that a black hole implodes
In a trillion tears from now

[D3 for LU]

Back then in time, we spoke up for the Earth
The truth, the proof, but in our hearts, the words
We used were not to break or kill this spell
Only to warn, to track the dark that fell

[D3 for LU]

And now, here we be the few that survive
The ones who knew, look back in our hindsight
Knowing always there would, should be an end
Knowing it was just a question of when

[D3 for LU]

Each of these souls, just one in a billion
Each of the stars, just one in a trillion
We move on through so dead, so black the void
And still back there in dust, the Earth destroyed

[D3 for LU]

Back then in time, we spoke up for the Earth
The truth, the proof, but in our hearts, the words
We used were not to break or kill this spell
Only to warn, to track the dark that fell
