It’s All One Song

Point A, Point B, or somewhere in between?
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
Someone’s in the kitchen with DNA.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
This is what happens when you say no more.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.

Writing all the verses, one by one.
Making charts to throw onto the ground.
Sometimes out of tune or just a little fast.
Play it like the first time. Play it like the last.

Wait a minute – aren’t we going in circles?
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
Science is a powerful drug of choice.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
Star spoke in silence by the light of the moon.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.

Writing all the verses, one by one.
Making charts to throw onto the ground.
Sometimes out of tune or just a little fast.
Play it like the first time. Play it like the last.

Singing in the street I see a manhole – what’s beneath?
Just a block from home but never went that way before…
Damn, it’s getting late (or early in another state).
Open the cover, down the ladder, the escape.
Down the ladder, the escape.

Now I know just how it goes.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
Breath & blood & skin & bones.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
Haven’t heard it played like this.
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.
Into the fire with the instruments
It’s all one song, it’s all one song.

Writing all the verses, one by one.
Making charts to throw onto the ground.
Sometimes out of tune or just a little fast.
Play it like the first time. Play it like the last.
