about

lyrics

Dear astronomer, can you teach me to read the stars?
These patterns we decipher, set adrift and set out so far
So far

All my life I’ve asked for a miracle
Always acting so cynical
To see a place that I’ve never seen
Wouldn’t that be magical?
My soul is insatiable

Dear astrology, I need you here with me
To navigate the sky
Somewhere gravity can never follow me
Dragging me down like a kite

Dear astronomer, can you teach me to read the stars?
In the patterns we decipher, set adrift and set out so far
So far

All your life you’ve ignored the miracles
Maybe now you’ll see you’ve reached your pinnacle
And right before my eyes appeared something magical

Dear astrology, I need you here with me
To navigate the sky
Somewhere gravity can never follow me
Dragging me down like a kite

I feel taller than a mountain, lighter than the air
Cascading like a fountain, I’m the wind in your hair
Silver linings shatter on a shore far from here
The crashing of waves is all we can hear

Dear astronomer, can you teach me to read the stars?
In the patterns we decipher, set adrift and set out so far
Dear astronomer, can you teach me how to read the stars?
To understand and follow them, ‘cus I fear we’ll lose who we are

I wonder what could lie beyond infinity
Far and gone as time marches on, in the nothingness we’re free
I wonder what could lie beyond infinity
Far and gone as time marches on, in the nothingness we’re free

I’ll think of you, I’ll think of you always
I’ll think of you, I’ll think of you always

Dear astronomer, can you teach me to read the stars?
In the patterns we decipher, set adrift and set out so far
Dear astronomer, can you teach me to read the stars?
In the patterns we decipher, set adrift and set out so far
Dear astronomer, can you teach me how to read the stars?
To understand and follow them, ‘cus I fear we’ll lose who we are

I wonder what could lie beyond infinity
I’m lost in the pursuit of our finality
