| Found the throughline |
| For all humankind |
| If given the time |
| They’ll blow up or walk on the moon |
| It’s just what they do |
| For personal gain |
| On Thanksgiving Day |
| I joined the parade |
| I stood at the top of the float |
| And threw out a rose |
| Watched a blast from the past |
| Indigenous dance |
| Started to laugh |
| And then I just started to cry |
| This world is waving goodbye |
| So cut a rug, let’s throw a party |
| Birthday cards for everyone |
| Swallow hard and say you’re sorry |
| Just admit what you have done |
| I studied your work |
| Like architecture |
| Cathedral of words |
| The meaning’s not easy to tell |
| Comes back around on itself |
| Admirers, your biographer |
| The odometer |
| There’s no way to turn back the clock |
| It’s going to run until it stops |
| So excited to play |
| Turned up all the way |
| Electric, ecstatic, psychotic |
| Jumped into the drums |
| Was pandemonium |
| So if it’s time let’s go together |
| I will be your ballast now |
| Let’s sail into that stormy weather |
| No matter how it turns out |
| I just want to stand by your side |
| (Guard my darling bride) |
| When everyone calls you a lie |
| I’ll be your shield |
| (They don’t know you) |
| There’s still some truth worth defending |
| Let’s stroll to the edge of the cliff |
| (Fear imbalanced bliss) |
| Stop here and give me a kiss |
| Now we’re walking on air |
| (Breeze and lightness) |
| There’s no hell beneath our feet |
| If it ever occurred |
| Just once in the world |
| A love as absurd |
| As ours I would scream what we lost |
| From the mountaintop |
