Pale Blue Dot Lyrics

Well I dreamed I saw an old man
Weighed down by his years
Facing out to the ocean-ward
Counting out his fears
I asked him many questions
He held me in his gaze
He said.. age has brought me wisdom boy
But faith has brought me tears

Failing that boy
You'll find your own way home

Painting Virgin Marys
They all look much the same
Baked in thirty seconds flat
They've turned out much the same
Packed off to the grotto
They better not move their heads
We'll be praying for falling angels
Floating two feet over our beds

Failing that girl
You'll find your own way home

  • @footster26 I believe the song was created by the youtuber. It's on itunes.

  • @zeprules1234

    did you ever discover what this song was called, i have been searching and still can't find it.

  • the idea that some can reduce this brilliant mans ideas to a small minded and redundant argument over "GOD" - "NO god" is absurd, disrespectful and evidence that they are not GETTING him at ALL.

  • Well done.

  • The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities.

  • Be skeptical of those in authority..... for-ev-er........... quit being sold your own comfort........ or, should I say..... your own self!

  • Well that was fucking amazing
