"Rings Of Saturn" lyrics

While the rings of Saturn turn
In the emptiness out there
We'll each learn to play our part by heart
But only if we dare
And brother, no, that ain't the meaning
No, brother, no, that ain't the vibe
It's in this dying exhortation
I now cautiously describe

They're all made of nothing
And they're all made of stone
Yeah they're all made of something
That you can't find on your own
And the night is harsh and broken
Now the light has broken through
And I won't be here for long, I fear
If you're not with me too

Still the rings of Saturn turn
Up in that ancient, empty sky
And all our pleasure, life and leisure
Shall be measured by and by
And brother, no, it isn't easy
No, brother, no, it never was
And what shimmers there beyond the air
Was never really there because

They're all made of nothing
And they're all made of stone
Yeah, they're all made of something
That you can't find on your own
And the night is harsh and broken
Now the light has broken through
And I won't be here for long, I fear
If you're not with me too

Still the rings of Saturn turn
In the emptiness out there
