Black And Gold

The fish swamOut of the oceanAnd grew legsAnd they started walkingAnd the apes climbed downFrom the treesAnd grew tallAnd they started talkingAnd the starsFell out of the skyAnd my tearsRolled into the oceanNow I'm lookingFor a reason whyYou even set my worldInto motion'cause if you're notReally hereThen the starsDon't even matterNow I'm filledTo the top with fearBut it's allJust a bunch of matter'cause if you're notReally hereThen I don't wantTo be eitherI wanna be next to youBlack and goldBlack and goldBlack and goldI looked upInto the grey skyAnd see a thousand eyesStaring backAnd all aroundThese golden beaconsI see nothing but blackI feel a way of somethingBeyond themI don't seeWhat I can feelIf visionIs the only validationThen most of my lifeIsn't real'cause if you're notReally hereThen the starsDon't even matterNow I'm filledTo the top with fearBut it's allJust a bunch of matter'cause if you're notReally hereThen I don't wantTo be eitherI wanna be next to youBlack and goldBlack and goldBlack and gold
