[Verse 1]
The music of the spheres is music to my ears
Their soft melody is soothing, moving me to tears
I woke up in a cave
I saw the shadows on the wall, and the shackles on us all
Didn't even know I was a slave
The dawn of me was when I made an armory
Simple utensils and basic pottery
Went on an odyssey. Sailed the coldest, darkest seas
I got seasick, at least I had Hypocrities
I met Siddhartha the Buddha and he walked with me
He let me go but he never had forgotten me
I talked to Socrates
We talked philosophy until he got to me
I told him not to bother me
Talked to some prophets, but everything they taught to me
Could have been gotten by a frontal lobotomy
They brought me darkness and in this darkness it dawned on me
The amazing gift Copernicus brought to me
Thus began my apostasy of prophecy
But it gave me most of all the art we see
I was there, Newton saw the fruit drop on me
When science unseated Philosophy's monopoly
[Chorus](x2)
Science is music
Like a child we use it
To view the world the way the violin views it
Philosophy will tell us why we confuse it
With truth, and why were right to confuse it
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I think therefore I am
I think there's more to man
As soon as I think that, they go and scorch the land
Torch in hand. The morbid man
Will scorched the foreign land
There's nothing more horrid than the war of man
A shorter span than the span that the tortoise ran
That's life. What a way to torture man
Our mortality mortifies and horrifies us
We hope or children will immortalize us
But deep down inside at our core it bites us
The clock will tick forever more despite us
If we listen close then the dead can teach us
To our Kierkegaards and our Friedrich Nietzsches
In Charles Darwin's *Origin of Species*
We find so much more when we explore the thesis
We better hold on to it 'fore it leaves us
Cause it can teach us so much more than Jesus
[Chorus](x2)
Science is music
Like a child we use it
To view the world the way the violin views it
Philosophy will tell us why we confuse it
With truth, and why were right to confuse it
[Verse 3]
I had a dream, I was on a beam of light
I would float through the sky at the speed of light
But everything that I seen on my genius flight wasn't right
I have a theory and I think I'm right
The Universe's speed limit is the speed of light
A light bulb turned on, I could see at night
Particle physics dies if String Theory's right
I think it might be the theory of everything in sight
Just a little planet, around a single star
The star is in a galaxy of a billion more
In a billion galaxies we can see like ours
A sea of stars, as far as we can see in ours
Is one Universe in a infinite Multiverse
Our lack of cosmic understanding gets so much worse
There's not only more than we can even hope to learn
There's more than we can ever even know we won't discern
[Chorus](x2)
Science is music
Like a child we use it
To view the world the way the violin views it
Philosophy will tell us why we confuse it
With truth, and why were right to confuse it
