He went off
Like a rocket touched
Way up in the sky
Beyond the bars in our minds
Just took off
Rocket to the sun
Blast his way through here
Beyond the world in our eyes

We grow up
If we can join the dots
That got us here to there
Beyond our dreams in the spheres
You go off
Like little fireworks
Exploding in the street
And crumpled sheets where we lie

All our lives
The system all decides
The institution's old
But still in control
Nothing in the chambers worth nothing at all
All the wealth is hidden, diamonds a-glisten
And solid gold
Well, have it all, it's worthless
