Red Shift
Once, all the stars in the sky were brightnow they're red and fadingand all the colours we wore, the shades that we borehave movedAnd the gold turns to red with no time for changesRed shift, all moving away from weOnce, constellations were holy, now darknesspervades all the older onesand in the brunt of implosion, all yesterday's goldennow reddened sunsand hope is a word with no space for blame inRed shift, displaced now in time and relativityRed shift, all moving away from weSo here I am, though I might well be with meI'm falling down deep to the rim of the wheelIs it sham?Does the world have a meaning?The more that we know, the greater confusion growsStars are like atoms, and atoms are patternsAnd probably in the endMaybe it's all been a dreamTime locked in negative matterAll theories shatter beneath the weightLetras de cancionesHappy is the man who believes that the worldis a dream and all reason, fateAnd time moves on with no timeThe eye moves on with no rhymeand I'm a song in the depth of the galaxiesRed shift is taking away my sanityRed shift, all moving away from we
