i am a man you fell down from that apple tree the other day with me we had already forgotten we one day crawled up from the sea imagine now if we one day could build a flying contraption and see the world what if we could somehow store knowledge in a cloud draw a smiley face on the moon find the meaning of life riding the crest of our time with bravado soon complete will we see a new one rise behind us a new chance a new world our wave its about to break and were about to dive in the void it echoes our fall our paean to avarice i think were closer to an animal every day till we fall can you believe we have all those eyes high in the sky and we can now see the world one thing truly makes me blind the wisdom of hindsight the eye in my own hand riding the crest of our time with bravado soon complete will we see a new one rise behind us a new chance a new world i think im closer to an animal every day till i fall if you want it all you can have it all but greed raises oceans too when the glacier of our broken dreams melts in your champagne glass someone knocks on your door four times sand in your hour glass every grain is a day falling finding its rightful place if you want it all you can have it all but greed raises oceans too when the glacier of your broken dream melts in your champagne glass do we need it all we can have it all our greed will raise oceans soon and the glacier of our human dream gone with the champagne glass in the sea back in the sea back in the sea i am a man in the grand scheme of things only minutes have passed since i crawled up from the sea but already ive built a flying contraption and seen the world ive drawn a smiley face on the moon and stored knowledge in a cloud what a wonderful gift our mind is but why am i using it to destroy this beautiful planet my only home if it defines me if it makes me a human i need to get closer to my inner animal
