LYRICS
Lift! Lift! Get out of the myth
No more allure
From your gold, frankincense and myrrh

Delight in the light
I am
The Golden Age and platinum
The fate of fatal heavy metal (meddle)
The fate of a fatal fall for all
Get out of the allure
You’re….
Headed into the light
Stars collide
Ride
The gravitational wave
Conserve
Save
Energy for me

ABOUT THE SONG
A song about neutron stars colliding and creating gold, platinum and gravitational waves.

“It’s so beautiful. It’s so beautiful it makes me want to cry. It’s the fulfillment of dozens, hundreds, thousands of people’s efforts, but it’s also the fulfillment of an idea suddenly becoming real,” said Peter Saulson of Syracuse University.

LYRICS
Though bizarre by far
You can’t make this stuff up
When you see
The extent of the irony
You’ll say,
No way?!?!?!
That’s too funny

When you take the fun out of humor
Well, it’s just not that funny any more
When you take the laugh out of laughter
… can’t take the joke any further/farther

I learned soon…
Like a lead balloon
But of course…
I had to beat a dead horse

In need of more humor

Truth stranger than fiction
Reality contradiction
When you see the extent of hypocrisy
You’ll say,
No way?!?!?!
That’s too funny

LYRICS
A strange thing happened to me on the way to Earth…
Birth

Percolator
Escalator
Envelope pushing instigator
Elope on the continuum ’til later?
Yes, I am
Continue continuum ’til later
I’m a space-time navigator
Percolator escalator
Peculiar escalating
Elevating peculiar
Evolving escalation
’til peculiarity is no rarity
In fact, profanity in normality

A strange thing happened to me on the way to Earth…
Birth

LYRICS
Pulling on through
Thank you
I saw me trying desperately
To get through
Thank you

Before I was a baby
I saw me
Trying to push through
Had to do
What I had to do
What was I going to do?
Thank you
For pulling me through

When I was ghostly sick
By God! Got me over it quick
You pulled me through
Thank you
When I was ill, you gave the pill
To cure for sure
Thank you
For pulling me through

Love the way you pull me through
Light of day… you pull me through

LYRICS
I think the brain
Might have missed the last train
… insane caught the train

Did only the insane
Get on the train?
Throw the rest of us
Under the bus
Why the fuss?
There’s plenty of room
Under the bus

What the heck
Is this a train wreck?
Still not that sane
To take the plain/plane

Not “whatever floats your boat”

LYRICS
For those that are left
We wish you the best
As for the rest
Too late for fate

For those that endure
We’ll love you some more
As for the dead
What can be said?

They say the world turns ’round
’bout each and every day
Watching the clock run
Another year around the sun
“Oh, dear! Another year”
Fear the Reaper getting near?

Going faster and faster
Never going to out last her
In The End, her spin will win
So why not join in?
Begin in spinnin’

My dust must spin around
I’m found spinning around

If you can’t beat her, let her eat ya
Joinin’ in spinnin’

LYRICS
So, ours soars with the angels
All her children ring their bells
Joined the choir that sings with wings

Been being to other beings
As she’d be unto herself
Now an undercover angel
Doing well with spirit stealth

Been being to other beings
As she’d be unto herself
Now an undercover angel
Doing well with spirit (heaven’s) wealth

Been being to other beings
As she’d been unto herself
Now an undercover angel
Granted eternal health

So, ours soars with the angels
All her children ring their bells
Joined the choir that sings with wings

LYRICS
What am I suppose to do
When there’s nothing I can do
What am I suppose to do
I’m asking you

Gotta get back on my feet
By keeping upbeat
Defeat defeat
When my heart’s complete

Maybe if I help the world
Before I get too old
The idea ain’t that bold
Oldest story ever told

No reason. There is no “why?”
We’re all going to die
Will you transcend the sky
Because you decide to try

I’m asking you…
I’m begging you

LYRICS
The fortitude in you
The attitude of fortitude
Have you?
I’ve got the fortitude
In the key of blues

Have you got it?
Come on and get it
Go get it
Have you got it in you?
Come on, do you?
Do you, too?
I’ve got the fortitude
In the key of blues

In a compassion fashion
Not rude and not lewd
With the love of a peace dove
Fortitude
I’ve got the fortitude
In the key of blues

LYRICS
Feeling helpless
Oh so helpless
Alas, one more “unless”?
Hopelessly helpless
Helplessly hopeless
I must confess
I wish there was something I could do
I wish there was something I could do… for you
Feeling blue
Turns to black
There’s no turning back

There’s no place to hide
We’re along for the ride
See you on the other side

I don’t understand
I want to hold her hand
I want to save the life
… of my wife

LYRICS
I’m so lonely without you at home
Yes it is
It’s Chris I miss

It’s so lonely at home without you
Can’t hardly cry myself to sleep
No matter how I weep
I don’t know what to do
When are you coming home
I feel so all alone
Where am I going now?
I’ve got to help her somehow
When is she coming home
When is she?
I’m so lonely
When is she?
