lyrics

New York City
of the second sight
have no pity
ladyship of light
sweet & sticky
and a heart beats in the night
sitting pretty
renaissance hermaphrodite

television
in the afterlife
indecision
of the third eye
holy vision
of the witness mystic pink
gold transmission
metaphysical lip sync

in the black hole
I can see you smiling from my phone
in the black hole
I can see we'll never be alone

and I know, I know, I know
I know it's not space and time
and I know, I know, I know
I know it's not the body or mind
and I know, I know, I know
I know it's in front of my eyes
and I know, I know, I know
I know it's a wonderful lie

in the black hole
I can see you smiling from my phone
in the black hole
I can see we'll never be alone

and when we upload to the sun
into the transcendental fun
baby it doesn't matter how
nothing can come between us now

ba bum pa bum bum...
