Julian Lennon - New Physics Rant lyrics

nothing changes, we simply follow

Rhythms that are distant echoes

Ancestors turning in their sleep

Silhouetted on the future,

playful figures that cut across the winking eye

of God's projector

A partial eclipse of the original light

that eminates in all directions

so the darkness isn't pierced, but rather

forced to retreat

Pushed out by its own internal explosion

The screen of God's movie is time expanding

and every atom is a solid globular mirror

in which His grotesque anamorphic grin

splits the darkness!

(chorus)

Everywhere our world's expanding

Journeys through the soul

Past all thought and understanding

Science or control

Looking to the future

is looking at the past

in whichever direction you happen to face

You were forward, and I was slipping back

In the time it takes for the light of the stars to stir

the retina, rods and cones

History's in the beholder's eye

Fait accompli

Dans un outre androit

The further away we are, the farther back we see

Unless

we could gaze instantly across the sound

where, moored like ships, planets anchored

swing and sway

Golden barges laden down with mists and frozen crystals

dancing away!

(chorus)

Everywhere our world's expanding

Journeys through the soul

Past all thought and understanding

Science or control

(repeat chorus and fade
