Lyrics Gosper Island - SiMs

How many colors passing through the glass distract me?
I was focused on the fractals when you asked me
Shall I count the ways an organ grinder finds to play that thing brand new
Every single day
Violet by any other name
But in this place it's by any means
Shadow dancing with infrared beams
Into the seams, into the cracks, into the places we can be unseen
And we thought we could get away clean
But those blue and reds
I count the walls and windows, see the ceiling feel the floor
But I don't see a door
So easy-out is out then
I'll start counting up these fractals
Amounting up these actuals
Tagging up these tangibles
But how to count the waves
I've been around to see some cycles
Seen a silhouette of silos and some polarizing primal
Let me say I'm sick of grey scale
I've met some bitter rivals
Too intently down their rifles to spot the better angles
Met some enterprising angels
They were synthesizing rainbows
Unabashed in their dayglow
I could just bask in
I could just laugh into these spaces I can't see
Between my skin and clothes
Between my teeth and ghost
The hidden folds between the sand and beach
How to count the waves
How to count the waves
How to offset the phase
How to synchronize phrase
How to love what is left in its wake
When it rolls in to take it away
Give it back to you
How many colors passing through the glass distract me?
I was focused on the fractals
Passing through the glass distract me
