I was right there near the goal 
In the information flow 
Where strange things come and go 
From despair to ecstatic glow 
Where the flesh meets the dust 
But there's nothing there to trust 
Where the rhythms pulse and bind 
Where the human heart takes over the mind 

And the sky's only blue 
If you think it is 
And you think that's true 
But you don't get to choose 
Between love or delusion 

I was right there in your bed 
But I could not get in your head 
No I could not penetrate 
I unlocked the code too late 
From the zeros to the ones 
In between those complicated sums 
In a system so advanced 
That it runs on blood 
And it works by chance 

But the sea's only blue 
If you think it is 
And you think that's true 
But you don't get to choose with 
Love or delusion 

Well i've smelled your hair 
And i've kissed your lips 
Felt the touch of your fingertips 
But the sky was only blue 
When it looked that way 
And I wanted it to 

I was out of my head 
Between the living and the dead 
Where the stars don't align 
In a paradox of time 
From the zeros to the ones 
In between those complicated sums 
In a system so advanced 
That it runs on blood 
And it works by chance 

But the sky's only blue if you think it is 
And you think that's true 
And the sea's only green 
In a certain light that you think you've seen 
And you don't get to choose 
Between love or delusion
