Ship of Fools Lyrics

My emptiness holding
A machine with scars
This construct is held together
By shimmering black matter

One light year more
And it will be
The furthest I have been from home
What's in store
We shall see
What's within the burning dome
Secrets inside
All that I
Have yearned so long to find
Esoteric minds
Seeking truth
Unlocking mysteries of time

Seek and you will find
Progress of the mind
What did we leave behind
But our connection with mankind

We are the guests of sea-dreams
With peace we mean no harm
To lords of sentient beings
Show to us your charms
"Go forth and see the relic.
What does it tell you?"
Visions past comprehension
Beyond the stars and moons

And we fly
Through thunderous clouds
That complement my design
(Or fall to the top of the trees)
As we soar
Through space and time
Wash up in the arms of the cosmic shore
(Or crushed by the event horizon)

Wondrous bliss
Embracing the stars
And the yawning abyss
That echoes forever
Can you hear it?
The clockwork harmony
Of cosmic symphonies
Calling to me

And we fly
Through thunderous clouds
That complement my design
(Or fall to the top of the trees)
As we soar
Through space and time
Wash up in the arms of the cosmic shore
(Or crushed by the event horizon)
