"Existential Hero" lyrics

"Existential Hero"

Whole world! From the high country to the bottom of the sea
I caught a place that I needed to be
It comes and it goes, the momentary glory
Then, quick as they came they're down the drain
Another one coming from a shallow place will not remain
Remember when what was possible would never end
Now we abide by limits I cannot defend
It fits good and yet the best we reject
You get what you get I guess don't get upset

Where is that Garden of Eden
Under stars and the trees and
And so far, so far from the heathens
Planets follow patterns, our stars in the seasons
Flowing like a river we broaden and deepen

Hold on, before we are gone
Got lots to do but time with you
Keeps on sliding
And I keep on blowing a fuse, there you go
Unseen, your face in the screen
I feel your attention dividing
But this is worth more than the news

Prepare to bare all
I paint the cave walls
I am the hobbit
With the ring in the forest
I am the richest, I am the poorest
A particle I vibe I just keep dancin'
I move from this world into a mansion
Of light and love as below and above
I chart the planets and the whales migration
I'm home everywhere I run the station
The last light of a dying star
In every game I am that wild card
I participate I'm paleolithic
And geology and astrophysics
A true cowboy existential hero
I compiled that deck and named it tarot
I'm in play. Give me the ball
I'm Buddha with amnesia then sudden recall

Somehow I fell into it all again, it all again
Somehow I fell into it all again, it all makes sense
Somehow I fell into it all again, it all make sense
Somehow it was here all along
