Once Was One Lyrics
[00:16.94] Of all us he had to know he'd never grow
[00:23.08] He'd never climb, he'd never love like the love I know
[00:30.34] When I was two and he was ten they carried me
[00:37.14] Through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas
[00:44.59] Once was born of light like you
[00:48.79] Once was one but now I'm two
[00:52.95] When I was born of love like you
[00:57.34] When you were ten and I was two
[01:01.41] There were two monkeys talking sounding like little dogs
[01:04.53] They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
[01:08.16] In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
[01:11.75] The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines, singing
[01:15.65] "We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"
[01:30.60] If gathering is all we need to change the wind
[01:37.06] For anything to die it needs first to begin
[01:44.50] Once was born of light like you
[01:48.99] Once was one but now I'm two
[01:52.86] When I was born of love like you
[01:57.38] When you were ten and I was two
[02:01.67] There were two monkeys talking sounding like little dogs
[02:04.72] They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
[02:08.02] In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
[02:11.88] The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines, singing
[02:15.26] "We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"
[02:28.54] In time, saw your future is not burning so bright
[02:39.46] But if we live too long you'll live less like mine
[02:45.21] We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off
[03:12.56] There were two monkeys talking sounding like little dogs
[03:15.48] They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
[03:19.16] In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
[03:22.55] The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines, singing
[03:27.33] "We all, we all, we all turn on, we all, we all, we all turn off"
[03:39.44] In time, if human breed hate, love and lies would be traits of mine
[03:48.50] But I was of the future, past and present time
[03:56.88] Once was born of light like you
[04:01.14] Once was one but now I'm two
[04:05.49] When I was born of love like you
[04:10.03] When you were ten and I was two
[04:13.98]
[00:23.08] He'd never climb, he'd never love like the love I know
[00:30.34] When I was two and he was ten they carried me
[00:37.14] Through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas
[00:44.59] Once was born of light like you
[00:48.79] Once was one but now I'm two
[00:52.95] When I was born of love like you
[00:57.34] When you were ten and I was two
