lyrics

When I wrote this song the other day
My thoughts kept drifting light years away
Matter arranged in countable ways
Is there someone out there putting the same words
On the page?

And I pity all those other mes
That have suddenly found their fatality
And I envy all those lucky enough
To be blessed with quantum immortality
I know that I'll never get to meet them
No machine could ever travel fast enough to greet them
But I know that they're out there
I'll never stop believing
That in a multiverse full of surprise
I may one day look into my own eyes

So what went through your mind as you listened to this line?
If you never really had a choice with what to do with your time
Is it all set out before you?
I wish you well
But is there ever only gonna be one story
For you to tell?

But don't despair my friend
There ain't one road that leads to your end
For there are many crossroads and splits
And infinitely many yous taking the path
That they see fit
