Lyrics by Indi Riverflow

ARIA
We’ve come to some oasis
Where the water tastes like truth
Filtered through reverse osmosis
And delivered to the youth
For the thirsty do not inquire
If that cup of Kool-Aid is pure
When it quenches the heart’s desire
And comforts the unsure
ALL
Under a spotlight
You know there’s some shadows
Make it too bright
You’ll blow off my halo
Say, my tale’s airtight
Just killing time at Calypso’s
CASSANDRA
When the highway hum is overrun
And centuries handiwork undone
ALL
Look at you…
ARIA
When the darkest days draw quickly nigh
And we’re drowned out by giant dragonflies
ALL
Look at you…
JULIA
As velvet emptiness envelops the sky
Let’s launch some fireworks before we die!
ALL
Look at you…
CASSANDRA
While the grinning moon smiles wide
Hey, look at you, looking on the bright side
YUL
Let us carve our names in the feast
Before we end in the belly of the beast
As echoes of phantoms rise up to speak
Howling, haunting, ghostly tongues in cheek
They say, better put your actions
Where your notions are
Or this quest’s not gonna get very far
ALL
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side!
CASSANDRA
When our journey’s taken a turn for the worse
And we’ve reached the outskirts of the universe
ALL
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side!
YUL
When the last ship home has long since sailed
All trains of thought summarily derailed
ALL
Look at you…
ARIA
Somewhere out there a cyclone subsides
On castaways stranded without a guide
While broken violins roll in on the tide
CASSANDRA
Oh, look at you, looking on the bright side!
YUL
Who would dare stand on ceremony?
Toast wine bitter with ashes and acrimony
Oh, if you can’t handle a burn
Better hold your fire
Lest your ire be returned
In the shape of scathing satire
JACK
Under a spotlight
You know there’s some shadows
Make it too bright
You’ll blow off my halo
Say, my tale’s airtight
Just killing time at Calypso’s
CASSANDRA
When all the alarms are on full blast
Fresh air scarce and vacuum vast
ALL
Look at you…
JULIA
Molecules multiply as atoms divide
Oceans flood as deserts are dried
ALL
Look at you…
CASSANDRA
Transparency has nowhere to hide
But look at you, looking on the bright side
ALL
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side!
JULIA
Look at the armies of schism a-risin’
Numinous clouds looming off the horizon
ALL
Look at you…
AMANA
Stumbling and rumbling toward resurrection
A thousand eyes cast in every direction
ALL
Look at you…
ARIA
All chasing rainbows and hunting untold gold
Hidden in folds a half-century old
ALL
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side
Yeah, look at you, lookin’ on the bright side
CASSANDRA
Sparks fade as flames appear
Stars burn out and change career
YUL
On the fast-track back to where it all begins
The breath at the core of the original spin
ARIA
When a dreamer awakens stirred and shaken
On the electric express to Manifest Station
ALL
But under a spotlight
You know there’s some shadows
Make it too bright
You’ll blow off my halo
Say, my tale’s airtight
Just filling time at Calypso’s
ARIA
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side
JULIA
Yeah, look at you, lookin’ on the bright side
CASSANDRA
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side
ALL
Yeah, look at you, lookin’ on the bright side
Look at you, lookin’ on the bright side

Start and start and start and start
Start and start and start and start
Start and start and start and start
ALL
Start over again Start over again
Start over again
Start
