Bright Eyes - Arc Of Time (Time Code) Lyrics
you can make a plan,carve it into stone,like a feather fallin,it is still unknown,until the clock speaks up,says its time to go,you can choose the high,or the lower road,might clench your fist,might fork your tongue,as you curse or praise,all the things you've done,and the faders move,and the music dies,as we pass over,on the arc of time,so you nurse your love like a wounded dovein the covered cage of night,every star is crossed by frenetic thoughtsthat separate and then collide,and they twist like sheets til you fall asleep then they finally unwind,its a black balloon its a dreamyoull soon deny,i hear if you make friends,with Jesus Christ,you will get right up,from that chalk outline,and you'll get dolled up,and you'll dress in white,all to take your place,in his chorus line,and then in you'll come with thosemarchin' drums in a saintly compromise,no more whisky slursno more blonde haired girls for your whole eternal life,and youll do the dance that waschoreographed at the very dawn of time,see i told you son the day would come,you will die you die you die you dieto the deepest part of the humanheart the fear of death expands,so we cracked the code we have always knowbut could never understand,on a circuit board we will soon be born,again again and again and again...
