Lyrics
Drift aloft in some effortless place Bound by delicate dread Saving no face Air dissolves where one game is designed Something's elegant find So the program goes Fate decides how these columns align Birth by chess or benign Every moment Marble gods tango circles in space Round the already dead Hung by staircase Up On and on the awakening light will bathe Slumbers of ethereal sights Today is renewed Is reborn Each day I am new I am yours So please dismiss what they claim about this Being in vain to explain How expressed with a kiss Taking passionate steps Floor suspending abyss Such impossible bliss Such impossible bliss Such impossible bliss Such impossible bliss Such impossible bliss Such impossible bliss
Adlibs Transcription
Zubin Sedghi: Yo, this is a Joe Hawley production. ...F***, I missed my introduction from that. Stephanie Koenig: (Laughter) Ah yeah, swearing! Uhm... ZS: Let me say that again, it's so disjointed that I'm not gonna get into a flow or anything. ...It sounded so genuine? White Ball-- That's-- That is just the title! (Laughter) Ross Federman: We probably shouldn't-- Joe Hawley: What? ZS: I panicked-- RF: We probably shouldn't include all of him saying "I'm not gonna get into a flow or anything." ZS: Also, I panicked and I just read the first words that were on there! (Laughter)
Bridge Demo
Ever, the awakening light will bathe Slumbers of eternal night Today is renewed And reborn Each day I am new I am yours So please dismiss wa-da-dada da da (throat clearing) Forgive me, I... I'm a little bit sick, so that might've sounded terrible, but hopefully you get the idea.
