What If falling stars were rising
Assimilated wishes misguided
Naturalised by superstitious traditions
Paying homage to forbearer institutions
But what If falling stars were rising
Assimilated wishes misguided
A mass of meat now cut to weight
And stuck between plastic and polystyrene
I've wasted all the time in this world
Escaping from all of the haters
Stealing the wind from the sails of the sailors
Hiding from all of the hydras
Searching for tomorrows treasure
With a constant numb sensation
From lead bullets that metastasised to your boots
But what if falling stars were rising
Assimilated wishes misguided
A mass of meat now cut to weight
And stuck between plastic and polystyrene
But what if falling stars were rising
Assimilated wishes misguided
Populations cut to weight
And stuck between plastic and polystyrene
