The Faint Forever Growing Centipedes

every time i move i'm in another dimension
everything i do changes what i want
i see a choice i make explode in thousands of pieces
every time i choose i become a shard

i could take up science
and study cells of the body
learn to postpone death
under the microscope
i'll make my own lab coat
and built a house in the forest
you and me eating mushrooms together
we'll stretch out so long, and hope we don't sever
FOREVER GROWING CENTIPEDES
FOREVER GROWING CENTIPEDES you and i
FOREVER GROWING CENTIPEDES
through time

i could step outside and walk in any direction
everything i choose erases ghosts of potential
but it makes some new ghosts that i can fill
i can just choose one
as far as i can tell

if i veer off course i'll learn to kick out the habit
if i spin off track i know that i can change
we could both grow up to be a 150
but for now we are children together

every time i move i'm in another dimension
everything i do changes what i want
i see a choice i make explode in thousands of pieces
every time i choose i become a choice

FOREVER GROWING CENTIPEDES
FOREVER GROWING CENTIPEDES you and i
FOREVER GROWING CENTIPEDES

let's build a buckminster dome on an island
we'll seal ourselves in a timeless web
if every second we make new futures
we'll see how long we can hide from death
