[00:09.72] I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes
[00:17.88] All the sights that I have seen
[00:25.30] I can't believe that I believed
[00:32.05] I wished that you could see
[00:36.54] There's a new planet in the solar system
[00:41.55] There is nothing up my sleeve
[00:44.47] I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
[00:49.87] I'm tossing up punch lines that were never there
[00:54.24] Over my shoulder a piano falls
[00:57.77] Crashing to the ground

[02:03.76] I'm looking for answers from the great beyond
[02:12.76] I want the humming birds, the dancing bears
[02:25.11] Sweetest dreams of you
[02:30.29] I look into the stars
[02:33.43] I look into the moon
[02:39.52] I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
[02:43.97] I'm tossing up punch lines that were never there
[02:48.22] Over my shoulder a piano falls
[02:52.13] Crashing to the ground
[02:56.94] I'm breaking through
[02:58.93] I'm bending spoons
[03:01.19] I'm keeping flowers in full bloom
[03:04.89] I'm looking for answers from the great beyond
[03:13.89] I'm breaking through
[03:15.96] I'm bending spoons
[03:18.06] I'm keeping flowers in full bloom
[03:22.13] I'm looking for answers from the great
[03:25.64] Answers from the great, answers
[03:31.04] I'm breaking through
[03:32.82] I'm bending spoons
[03:35.07] I'm keeping flowers in full bloom
[03:39.08] I'm looking for answers from the great beyond
[03:47.30] I'm breaking through
