"Infinite Jest" lyrics

"Infinite Jest"

Born to be wild
In a world turnin' mild
In the year of the living machine
Among other things
Little sentient beings
In a bottle with nowhere to breathe

With eyes closed
The sky grows
Bigger than I've ever seen
It's hard to forget
It's all infinite jest
With nothing much else in between

Oh my, it's wild
The world going straight through my eyes
Will only be mine for a while
Oh my, it's wild
The world going steady on by
Will only be mine for a while

Wanted some wings
Til I got the damn things
Now I dream with my feet on the ground
It's only in jest
But it's all for the best
Getting paid just to drive myself crazy

And with eyes closed
The night shows
I could see for millions of miles
Just take what you lack
And then give nothing back
And pray it will keep you alive

Oh my, it's wild
The world going steady on by
Will only be mine for a while
Oh my, it's wild
The world going right through my eyes
Will only be mine for a while

Oh my, it's wild
The world going right through my eyes
Will only be mine for a while
Oh my, it's wild
The world going right through my eyes
Will only be mine for a while
