Time Is Imaginary Lyrics

    Spoken:
    I had this dream and there was a king and he was looking at the sky
    And the sky turned around and looked at him and said, "king, you don't
    Know what it's like to rule, you only know about time, and time is
    Going to kill you. and you know what king, time is imaginary."


    White cello in an archway
    Frosted glass across the courtyard
    Lead light and beams
    The dignity and insistence of age
    Swallowing me up as i approach thirty


    Coloured ideas that once were monochrome
    Manifest themselves in this great mansion
    The woodwork of centuries
    I cannot greet new buildings
    I lust after the ancient


    You trip me up and graze my knee
    And i'll shrug the responsibility of healing
    There's all this blood on the inside of my trousers
    There's an 'l' shaped tear in well cut cloth
    I'm only learning


    Less and less i worry
    More and more i dream
    And i'll feed myself sweet nectared knowledge
    And i'll suffer its consequences


    Time is imaginary
