Finale (I Can See the World from Here)

I sought out a world beyond the world
Misty and white
Myst'ry of night
Shining like snowfall
Shaping in shadow
Secrets I never could know
I sought out a world beyond the world
Wasn't it still the world?
Doesn't that make it the world?

When is the world beyond the world?
Soon as you see it
Then it can't be it
Once it's revealed
Then nothing's concealed
The power it wielded is gone

I've taken something that I can't replace
I just don't know what to do
How do I take the way it is now
And make it how it was before?
Or maybe I'd do best to ignore

So what?
Things change!
Nothing about this is strange!
Over all millenia
Man must move!
He's dismissing issues
When an issue may behoove!

I've made a terror that I can't remove
How I wish I'D Thought ahead
There's no apology that has a chance
Of making even god forgive
I wonder, why now should I live?

I CAN SEE THE WORLD FROM HERE
AND STARS THAT SHINE A DIFFERENT SHADE
THE SUN IS NOW MY CHANDELIER
AND PLANETS PASS IN THEIR PARADE

AT LAST THE AIR IS NOT THE AIR
AT LAST THE SEAS ARE NOT THE SEAS
AND DUST AND DUNE ARE UNAWARE
OF ANY OTHER GRAVITIES

WITH EVERY STEP I LEAVE A PRINT
AND EVERY BREATH A SILENCE BROKE
SO EVERY MOMENT LEAVES A HINT
OF WHERE I DREAMED AND WHERE I WOKE

DELIGHTS AND DANGERS DOUBLY GLEAM
IN NEXT THE DAY, BUT FIRST THE DREAM

I CAN SEE THE WORLD FROM HERE
AND STARS THAT SHINE A DIFFERENT SHADE
THE SUN IS NOW MY CHANDELIER
AND PLANETS PASS IN THEIR PARADE
AT LAST THE AIR IS NOT THE AIR
AT LAST THE SEAS ARE NOT THE SEAS
AND DUST AND DUNE ARE UNAWARE
OF ANY OTHER GRAVITIES
WITH EVERY STEP I LEAVE A PRINT
AND EVERY BREATH A SILENCE BROKE
SO EVERY MOMENT LEAVES A HINT
OF WHERE I DREAMED AND WHERE I WOKE
DELIGHTS AND DANGERS DOUBLY GLEAM
IN NEXT THE DAY, BUT FIRST THE DREAM
