lyrics

STARBODY 1
Shall I build my home on concrete,

Or rich, nutritious soil?

STARBODY 3
Shall I build my home on fire

That makes my bloodstream boil?


STARBODY 2
Shall I build my home on lunar rocks

That soar across the sky?


STARBODY 1
I will build my home in love

I will keep my time in love


STARBODY 3
Such is the life, such is the life,

Such is the life on the moon

Life on the moon

STARBODY 2
Future calling, I see you.

I hear my future calling.

STARBODIES
Time is mine anew

In the space between

Where I’ll meet you.

LUNA
Life’s not a Home for me to rest
Life can’t withstand the test
Of nature’s grim behest.
Life is built on solid earth
Caught between death and birth
In a folded paper universe

Well, tie your boots up tight
Lest you fall amidst your flight
As you run to corners
Of the sky unknown.
And the Space between
Life and Time
Becomes Home

Is Time a system so divine
Time demands I stay in line,
Or can I bend it, so crisp, so fine?
Time is only last and first
Binary of best and worst
In a folded paper universe

Well, tie your boots up tight
Time moves at the speed of light
As you grow beyond the body of a star
Life and Time and Home
Are where you are

If you reach the furthest limits
Of this interstellar plane
And you find its only darkness
That is there to greet your pain
And you’re certain you will never
Fall in orbit once again
Of the Space between

When Life passes so quickly
You cannot stop to scream
And it is
What it is is
Just you know
You’re not alone
'Cause the Space between
Life and Time
Is your Home.


LUNA

Let your stars be your guides.
Keep your stars in your eyes.
And my children.
Let your Starbodies…

ALL
Rise!
