Shout to the sky Piss on the moon Spit in Jupiter's eye The end is soon And come with me For a swim in the sea Wade in the shallow water The Earth is growing hotter Never leave its growing warmth Never enter its only heart We live, we cry And then we die Only to start the journey over. Until Our Quest Is Done Wet leaves slide down your back No more blue in the sky of black Walk with me in the stinging rain Never mind them, they're all insane Never better will our lives be When I'm with you and you're with me Run we shall, into the sun Until our quest is done. · · · · · ·
