I'm staring through the telescope hungry
I'm starting through the telescope at all, at all

I know
When every inch of matter is measured
And every force and element is known, is known

It's on
You're looking for whatever comes after
You're looking for a way to escape, escape it all
You're looking for a map with no markings
You're having second thoughts about it all, it all

But I see a Geiger counter
And I see a Richter scale

Go
Leave your homes
Take whatever you can
It's no joke
It's coming towards you

And you can make a difference so easy
You could make a difference but you don't, you don't

I know
You'd never tell me anything real now
You'd never have the time to watch it all, it all, I know

And everybody thinking of the same thing
And nobody is saying it
You know, you know it all

You skip a generation and find it
You skip a generation and oh, and oh

But I see a Geiger counter
And I see a Richter scale
And the truth is the birth of a child
The sunlight, it's all I ever had

Go
Leave your homes
Take whatever you can
It's no joke
It's coming towards you

And I could make a difference so easy
I could make a difference but I don't
Darling, I'm closing
