STEVEN WILSON
"The Overview: A Beautiful Infinity / Borrowed Atoms"

Snow is falling but it can't be seen from here
And back on Earth, my loving wife's been dead for years
I see myself in relation to it all
What seemed important now like dust inside the squall
Each moment for me is a lifetime for you

[Instrumental break]

The clouds have no history
And the sea feels no sorrow
The oxygen recycled
And the atoms are just borrowed
The painless and fragility
Of this cycle, oh

[Chorus:]
I'm already gone, is there self?
Is this real or is this a dream?
There's no reason for anything
Just a beautiful infinity
No design and no one at the wheel
Just an existential mystery
La-la-la-la-la, la-la, la-la

[Outro:]
The light that radiates from here could shade the sun
But in a billion years its journey's just begun
(Begun, do-do-do-do)
