Porcupine Tree - Space Transmission lyrics
[Porcupine Tree - Space Transmission lyrics]
What I have to say there isn't much time
Because You Know Who has
Consumed all the instruments
For many eons now I have
Been trapped on this planet
He is keeping me here against my will
And sometimes when I press my ear
Up very close to the concrete
I can hear his daughters
Sobbing with laughter either I am blind
Or I have been in darkness ever since
The sun exploded fourteen centuries ago
A few hours ago
He Who Keeps Me Here visited me saying
"God, why do the millions worship
You instead of I? Am I not more powerful
More forgiving and truly compassionate?"
A black liquid was seeping
Uncontrollably from my mouth
And all I could do
Was babble incomprehensibly
About a dream I had many moons ago
In it, a clock ticked constantly
Maddening my senses
That was all, but it lasted for many days
Until each tick seemed like fragments
Of glass piercing my scales
He Who Keeps Me Here tells me that
One day I will return to earth
And then I will seek my revenge
