The Figurants - Astricin Lyrics

So you thought you were bending space and time
And manipulating motion
You said you were "more there to the left"
And pointed to the ocean
Your census proves itself, you're both wonderful people
All that pity and prestige coming from one, singular gene pool
Oh, but over the horizon, there's boats that are as strange as you and me
Like us, they had to find direction when they couldn't find the sea
And you know how that goes
We made it harder than it needed to be
Instead of going through the motions
It felt just like a year adrift at sea
As we just practice locomotion
She was so beautiful that her watch kept crashing
It was always noon or midnight, she was always in fashion
