Song Lyrics

I am embracing the cold
Rushing in like ice to a diamond
It's a new kind of rough you can find me in

Ah, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da

When the sail starts flapping in the wind
I say, "cool, that looks cool
Now do you think the second movement
Has too many violins?"

Ah, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da
Ah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da

Don't get too close
You'll detect the West Coast air
In my chest, and the way I hold it in there
It's the taming of the hands that came back to life
When she synchronized swam on the ice in '03
Oh, but enough about me

Will you live in the physical world?
Oh, will you live in the physical world?
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, dah
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
I know explosions make debris
And catching it kind of suits you
Well it doesn't suit me

She said, "my sails are flapping in the wind"
I said, "can I use that in a song?"
She said, "I mean the end begins"
I said, "I know, can I use that too?"
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, dum
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, dum
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, dum
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, da, da, dum
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, dum
Bah, da, dum, bam, bam
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, dum
Bah, da, dum, bah, da, da, da, dum

Will you live, will you live in the physical world?
Will you live, will you live in the physical world?
With the sun setting low and the shadows unfurled
Can you live with the way they make you look unreal?
Da, da, da, da, da, da

Will you live, will you live in the physical world?
Will you live, will you live in the physical world?
With the sun setting low and the shadows unfurled
Can you live with the way they make you look unreal?

Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
Bam, ba, dum
Bam, ba, da
Bam, ba, da, da, da
