lyrics
I always get tired around this corner of the day
I begin to drop into the darkness from the stage
But the play goes on without me
The players forget about me
As my dream
Lifts me out of the stream
Time loses its fragile grip on space where I once was
I fall through a meta-world ecstatic now because
My heart knows my mind completely
Every memory marches sweetly
Hand in hand
With where I will land
I awoke awake and all the time seems strangely bent
'Though I've been away for years there's twenty minutes spent
And that's proof of our existence
Imposing with insistence
A boundary
On what we see
I begin to drop into the darkness from the stage
But the play goes on without me
The players forget about me
As my dream
Lifts me out of the stream
Time loses its fragile grip on space where I once was
I fall through a meta-world ecstatic now because
My heart knows my mind completely
Every memory marches sweetly
Hand in hand
With where I will land
I awoke awake and all the time seems strangely bent
'Though I've been away for years there's twenty minutes spent
And that's proof of our existence
Imposing with insistence
A boundary
On what we see
