Everything’s Under

A metal hero on a clock descended ⁣⁣
A hand pointed where the ocean ended ⁣⁣
Disappearing in a cloud of envy ⁣⁣
Another stroke of luck it could be ⁣⁣
A dream of someplace warm, uh huh ⁣⁣
A souvenir, a flame ⁣⁣
Beneath the silence of the sun ⁣⁣
It's waiting there as we become perfectly undone ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Another version of another story ⁣⁣
Another telling of the guts and glory ⁣⁣
With no memory for itself, uh huh ⁣⁣
And the places in between ⁣⁣
The evening star was barely lit ⁣⁣
But in the air as it hovered there ⁣⁣
No one discovered it ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And we’re gone, gone, gone, beyond ⁣⁣
Everything's under control ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But when the moon is on the rise ⁣⁣
A piece of dust, a place for us ⁣⁣
Someplace that never dies ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
On a scale of stars or breathing ⁣⁣
The constellation of endless seething ⁣⁣
So many nights I've tracked them turning ⁣⁣
So many hours I’ve watched them burning ⁣⁣
The night's been taken, lost, uh huh ⁣⁣
Dreaming of someplace else ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You left me standing on a ledge ⁣⁣
I'm moving closer to the edge ⁣⁣
Beneath the silence of the sun ⁣⁣
It's waiting there as we become perfectly undone ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And we're gone, gone, gone, beyond ⁣⁣
Everything's under control⁣⁣
