Hedy Lamarr Letra

Swapping coasts and oceans.

I don’t think you need me now;

Mechanisms showing how

Humans live and die

Are set aside.



There is ash beneath the trees

In a wood that’s Viennese.

But I’ve offered everything

Up to the sea.



Tectonic shifts create weak lines,

Submerged by miles.

Those metric tons of ocean won’t confine

What will arise

Like an apocalyptical design.

And if I die,

I was a scientist in these times;

But what if science cannot find

A way to coexist or stay alive.



Crawling out of the sea—

Story sounds familiar—

Breathing air and water.

That is why I switched my field;

Empiricize the slow reveal.

Quantum rifts are real;

They should be sealed.



There is ash beneath the trees

In a wood that’s Viennese.

But I’ve offered everything

Pacifically.



Tectonic shifts create weak lines,

Submerged by miles.

Those metric tons of ocean won’t confine

What will arise

Like an apocalyptical design.

And if I die,

I die a scientist in my prime;

But what if I don’t leave behind

Solutions that exist or come in time?



Take me back if I come,

And I want my key back

Swapping life for theory.
