Lyrics
What if wormholes and warp drives Are mere flights of sci-fi fantasy? We’ll never even reach another star system Within the lifetime of a human being I guess we’ll have to file that under The growing list of casualties To attribute to fact we can’t move faster Than The Speed of Causality You asked me for an answer On the day she shook my hand An act that left me so affected In ways I hadn’t expected & cannot understand I guess we’ll have to file that under The growing list of casualties To attribute to fact we can’t move faster Than The Speed of Causality I’ve been tethered to a stranger By a gossamer adamantine string So I won’t cage you w/ my indifference Despite how much loneliness stings Saw her at the beach near the Golden Gate In a post that popped up in my feed Didn’t even know she was back in town Even though I reached out last week I guess I’ll have to file that under The growing list of casualties I’d attribute to fact we can’t move faster Than The Speed of Causality |
