lyrics

Verse 1:
Like the lakes, I'm great in 4k, landscape
Simultaneity space, made to skirt diverse states
My reality swayed by a construct contrived
As I chronicle the quantum described by my eyes
Sometimes, I may seem eerie or even a little superior
I'm here; I'll pick you up if you're stuck let me carry ya
Like this sound, take it; make it loud; wow, this beat is future bound
I hope you come around and when I'm lost that we're found
And then we rebound to the line, and don't let it fly by
So much time is wasted hesitating for sure signs
Stars shine, don't hide the heart of a clear mind
Yeah, let's get together like reticular mesenchymes
In messy times, we're meant to help and be kind
'Cause IRL don't work so well when trying to rewind
Until we get a bridge built by Rosen and Einstein
Yeah we may all die, but have fun in the here time

Chorus:
Yeah, the star lounge is open now
Come on in, and let us show you how
An horizon opening event
Climb aboard; we gon' get into it
Time for a wormhole pilgrimage
Cause we know that it is legit
Yeah, we really hope you stay around
Now welcome to the starlounge

Verse 2:
Big bang, steady state, unmoved mover, none of the 3
There must be something uncaused in the cosmos but not me
Cause two Clemente fans met 700 moons ago
And of a phosphorescent ovum, yada yada, and so
We have the Hessian’s Tale, filled with obsessions and holy grails
With a cryogenic bent to forestall, then post bail
Unpack aspirations from moth balls and flail
Falling down a murky hallway into a black veil
We are: set adrift. You know what? Banana splits
Are delicious, so taste the mix, wishless oblivion abides, and it’s
Cold and dark, solitary and stark, or rather
It's all blather but the footpaths of cadavers
Just walking each other home, through the catacombs
When in Rome, try a pistachio gelato cone
You hit the lotto, Holmes, you got the chromosomes
This ain't a rent-to-own trek through the quantum foam

Chorus:
Yeah, the star lounge is open now
Come on in, and let us show you how
An horizon opening event
Climb aboard; we gon' get into it
Time for a wormhole pilgrimage
Cause we know that it is legit
Yeah, we really hope you stay around
Now welcome to the starlounge

Verse 3:
Life’s a pedal, and it’s ready to just floor it, hit the gas
It’s a vapor, a limited stay here; you can’t store or bring it back
Like my neighbor, I just labor to ignore it even more 'til
This neural Sisyphean boulder on my shoulder starts to crack
In a wormhole; I fly through in a sky coupe
In a duel with time; we’ll see who dies at high noon
The arrow flies, and who Will Tell it finds fruit?
Tales are just narrators’ way to stay alive or try to
And I’m a shoddy, writer’s blocky Scheherazade rapping
I’m like Ryan Reynolds, don’t know how to act and that’s when
This living water slipping, dropping through my hands, and
Guess I’m heading to the ending that I practiced; check it
Rich fool, storing junk in the corner
I’m gonna lose it so no need to hoard it
Forgetting the dory and dropping the normal
And telling a story; now I’m an immortal
A journey to justice, grace, humility
Mercy; this has legs: millipedes
Surely pearly gates aren’t trussed with
Bluster, smugness, and fakes

Chorus:
Yeah, the star lounge is open now
Come on in, and let us show you how
An horizon opening event
Climb aboard; we gon' get into it
Time for a wormhole pilgrimage
Cause we know that it is legit
Yeah, we really hope you stay around
Now welcome to the starlounge
