I felt this song building in me
From this broken piano I sing
In this strangers house so far from my own
So far from everything
I've been seeing it from far away
From the Jordan to the American
At the scale of an atom or the depth of a star
Yeah nothing really means anything
All those thinkers in their lonely rooms
Peeling the layers to expose
The blueprint of Justice, the anatomy of God
You learn so much there's nothing you can know
But all that logic suffocates
Here in the chambers of need
Yeah right now when I close my eyes
That blistering highway is all I see
All we get is this moment
The stampede of history has led
Right to this train howling by in the dark
To these thoughts howling through my head
I miss you, I wish I was there
Laying next to you safe and sound
You can chase something to the ends of the earth
You'll only find the earth is round
