It was a beautiful night, yeah
the moon was climbing out of the mountains
And from the city in the ground
came the sound of a million lights
We were headed to the center of our brain
when they came a'knocking
They said, we've seen you before,
and we really like all of your stories
This world of wonder
We'll (eat) the bones of man
we never wanted to leave you. (x2)
When it touched my hand I felt my mind open up like a valley
And from a crack in the ground
came the sound of a million legs
There was a silent flash
before the Earth started closing up on itself
I felt at peace and alive even though the ship was goin' down
This world of wonder
We'll eat the bones of man
we never wanted to leave you. (x2)
