Lyrics
The Ancestor
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Go on, bury me
Under stone or under sea
Silent pictures
Keep the fishes company
There is little else for me now
But I will find my way
Out of the dark someday
Into a crimson yellow sun
Science fictional
When the morning comes we will
Walk for light years
Watch the nebulas appear
There is little else for me now
But I will find my way
Out of the dark someday
Into a crimson yellow sun
I'll follow my baby boy
He'll be a silver toy
And we'll count the ages as they're ending
But I will find my way
Out of the dark someday
Into a flash of solar inspiration
I'll follow my baby boy
He'll be a silver toy
And we'll count the ages as they're ending
