Silver spirals around the sun

Constellations spinning

And dissolving one by one

Frequencies are out of reach

The phosphorescent halo

Of the universe at peace

I know that time will pass us by

A twisted rearrangement

That makes us wonder why

The two of us will become one

Until it's over

And the moon becomes the sun

It moves the earth

I feel its worth

The ground will start to shake

It's what happens every time

The two exist

This continental drift

So take my hand and drift away

This atmosphere's not perfect

But it is what we create

An endless dance of start so bright

A super nova

Radioactive liquid light

And as we float through space

Not knowing what's ahead

Or what will fall into place

I dream of the black hole

That pulls us in

The argument of life

That I can't win

This continental drift

Don't you want me here?

I'm filling in the space

That keeps us from near

It's what sets us all apart

The artist from the art

And right back at the start

It's the mind against the heart

This continental drift

Continental drift
