If the world was flat
I'd walk off the edge
But I can't 'cause it's to big and round
I can just see myself
Falling through space
Grateful not to be found
Trouble with living here in the future
And sailing the Dutchman's sea
Is the trouble with love in the present tense
And the fear of eternity
See no matter where you are
You're about to come round
To just where you've already been
Don't be afraid
It happens to people
And then it happens again and again
Go off this marble
Leave something here
For somebody else but you
Awww it's a pity
Most folks don't realize
If the world was safe
I'd fly in my sleep
Crashing right through these blue walls
Doubts and fears would rise
Like a duster in Texas
Cushion my deadly fall
The problem is worse
If you're religious
What keeps your head in its place?
They think what they think
But you know what you know
The secrete handshake of fate
If the world was you
I'd travel extensively
Visiting some places twice
Scrambling for purchase
Wherever it's slippery
Against all and any advise
I'd sleep upside down
For a new view of heaven
Dream at both ends of the night
All through the middle
I'd breathe with you
Knowing we'd be all right
(Then we'd go)
Twisting into the light
