"Spooky Action" lyrics

Put this in front of any crowd
They will be on their knees or their feet
A rolling count scattered the moons
And I am in its debt, in its keep

A spooky action, a close-up magic
A rush and push
The thermal noise of the evening
Have you seen it though...
The way that it's meant to be seen?
The way that it's meant to be seen?

As I close up here, wish me well
"To 13 years on a dead man's ship!"
I will not live to tell the tale
But I hope the shot was worth it

A spooky action, a close-up magic
A rush and push
The thermal noise of the evening
Have you seen it though...
The way that it's meant to be seen?
The way that it's meant to be seen?

Filling my boots with stardust
Filling my pockets up with rocks
Follow the breath of empire, rise and fall

Filling my boots with stardust
Filling my pockets up with rocks
Follow the breath of empire, rise and fall

A series of nail-biting dives
And I am done, I'm on the cloud
Looking for endings in the mirrors
The darling buds of come what may
The way that it's meant to be seen...

Filling my boots with stardust
Filling my pockets up with rocks
Follow the breath of empire, rise and fall

Filling my boots with stardust
Filling my pockets up with rocks
Follow the breath of empire, rise and fall

And I see the lone propeller
Labor of moonlets, then one last turn...
To take in Titan, the famous giant
The burning god
Oh have you seen the stray arc of Daphnis
At Keeler's edge
The way that it's meant to be seen?

The way that it's meant to be seen?

The way that it's meant to be seen?

The way that it's meant to be seen?
