Turtles All The Way Down Lyrics

I have lived everyday of my life
Thinking only of what I should think
When I read back on everything that I have written
On how I lived my lifeAnd in the process of doing so
I have to start at the chance to feel alive
Just to stay an observer of an impartial observerHere I go again, I'm chasing my tail around the sun
Standing beneath a tortoise under an elephant under the world
The gravity of the battle means nothing to those at peace
I can't believe, I thought my thoughts meant anythingWhen we think we've reached the end
We're only back where we begin
When we think we've reached the end
We're only back where we begin
Superman, Superman, SupermanWe are starving to death on full stomachs
Running miles, new hearts on old legs
If I had known all the howls were false alarms
Oh, just imagine the ammo we'd saveHere we go again, I'll come to your party if it goes
Until four question marks at least
Three or less and it's not worth my time at all

On nights like those my absence trumps my companyWhen we think we've reached the end
We're only back where we begin
When we think we've reached the end
We're only back where we being
Superman, Superman, SupermanI truly believe I'll be remembered
And that even this sentence will be studied
Oh, will you think that I am wise 'cause I'm aware of that?
Or am I just killing myself before they get me
