lyrics

Once, you divided your heart into compartments,
Each one, a location to be occupied by only one thing.
In some you placed places, charming noises,
smells doing time in their prisons,
and oh-you-shouldn't-haves.

In others, your broken umbrellas,
there's no shade in this desert,
and some buckets are really just fickle, cunning tubes.
But I'll never be alone again.

I don't know because I have not been so long,
But what exactly is it we're trying to figure out?
Somebody, somewhere is mating science and religion.
Your god may be handing out sample miracles in a grocery store,
But there's no answer out there.

I want to be the instrument, but don't sleep without me.
Let's start pretending.
Let's stay up too late and wake up too early.
We could rewrite the rules of the universe, but
What's the meaning of any of this?

I don't know because I have not been so long,
But what exactly is it we're trying to figure out?
Somebody, somewhere is mating science and religion.
Your god may be handing out sample miracles in a grocery store,
But there's no answer out there.
