[ Featuring The Crown Fire ]
Holding our breath
As you look to the middle
We inch our way closer
Lightyear by little
Don't know what we'll find
Not sure why we look
To that muddled old middle
The prologue to our book
Unfolding, unfurling
The past at your fingertips
Take me a picture
And we'll all be in it
One million miles
Isn't that far to go
When you're pirouetting, perfectly
Across the cosmos
Staring down the barrel
Of the earliest light
Red turns to blue
It's all bunched up and bright
Is it the most profound discovery
Or a subtle distraction to watch on TV
Unfolding, unfurling
The past at your fingertips
Take me a picture
And we'll all be in it
One million miles
Isn't that far to go
When you're pirouetting, perfectly
Across the cosmos
Holding our breath
As you look to the middle
We inch our way closer
Lightyear by little
Don't know what we'll find
Not sure why we look
To that muddled old middle
The prologue to our book
