[Verse 1]

I'm leaving to walk the road inside my head

With cord in hand and powder breath I stand

And wave goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye


[Verse 2]

And the Systematomatic thinks, while buying blood on Broadway Street

Where the old messiahs go

There, pulsing through the atmosphere

Are answers to the questions that you should know

Don't let it go


[Chorus]

Or it's all downhill from here

It's all downhill from here


[Verse 3]

Examples of the afterlife

Responding visions half the time, and the other vertigo

Spun off the Earth a thousand times

And caught the wind that purifies the soul!

You should know


[Chorus]

It's all downhill from here


[Verse 4]

Ooh, lost out here, adrift in lights, it's wondrous

Weightless in clouds of colors the world will never see

And I am a figment of reality

Wrapped in the shroud of endless night, I scream aloud

But no one hears, so I tell my stories to satellites

And I am lost inside a memory


[Verse 5]

The pattern picks the pockets of the palindrome

Back to front, the loss remains the same

And it beckons to the east to give the west its eyes

While the oscillating rhythm marks its bones


[Verse 6]

To the young, it gives a vision of the dead and gone

While the old receive a passion to survive

And the pattern picks the pockets of the palindrome

Before the oscillating rhythm takes to flight


[Outro]

And I am lost inside a memory

Lost, lost
