The Flaming Lips - 7 Skies H3 (Can't Shut Off My Head) lyrics

And now though you're not here, can still feel your hands And now though you're not here, I can smell your hair Now though you're not here, I can see your eyes And now though you're not here, I can taste the spit That shines on your lips That you're licking, the first time we kissed All this thinking, I cant shut off my head. And now, and now I think about the insects And now I think about the worms And now, and now I think about the dirt And now I think about the hurt That you never showed, on the outside A screen what controls the pain in the night skies And I can't shut off my head. And now that you're not here, I'm frightened of the sunset It's a silent explosion, happening at the end of the world Everything pulls itself toward the end And every cloud makes a shape Resembling your face I always see your face, don't need to remember Can always see your face, now I surrender 'Cause I cant shut off my head. And now when I look up at the stars, I don't really see the stars All I see is the dark And now I see how everything turns dark And the light only lasts for a little while We're all light, that's going somewhere I can still see the light That shines through your hair 'Cause I can't shut off my head. And now that you're not here, I keep seeing a ghost Everyone I see disappears Everywhere I go, I see your ghost Everywhere, I see your face in the crowd The things we cant see, we just keep looking The things that die, somehow just keep living 'Cause I can't shut off my head. Now does this sound a sound And now does a hum just hum And now there's electric raindrops That fills up this little paper cup That flows on from now, until forever Searching for why, there's a god in Heaven 'Cause I can't shut off my head. And now that you're not here, a second is forever Now a minute, is not a minute And now an hour's not an hour And now my power, has no power 'Cause time just destroys, bells keep ringing Leaves from the trees, keep falling and spinning And I cant shut off my head. And now there's a way, shadows move Sometimes the sun imitates the moon The waves, the waves of dark move in the afternoon Evening sky overcomes you So fixed to the dawn, a new day is breaking But I shut my eyes, the moon is waiting 'Cause I cant shut off my head.
