Gravity is so weak
Lyrics
gravity is so weak and our galaxy so large yet it keeps, us all in this ellipse around our star for it doesn't relent and it won't give in for it is not opposed and it won’t rescind like god's voice so soft so soft i don't hear it speak in my dreams in my thoughts my thoughts in the quiet that i keep but it does not decay and it won't give in for it is not absorbed and it always forgives like our love so faint so faint that we don't feel it live in our arms in our legs my on the surface of our skin but we’re oh so kind and we won’t give in for I’ll not boast and we’ll always forgive like our love like our love like our love like our love like our love like our love like our love like our love our love our love

it took me a couple of days, but now i'm way into this. i have to say, listening to the more challenging bicycle day material has really broadened by tastes, so i am able to approach something like this with enthusiasm now, where once that wouldn't have been the case. i like the starkness of it, i like how unpredictable it is. i think the melody is easy to follow and it grounds the song enough that the keyboard craziness can be additive instead of distracting. i like how you sing it so softly. more than anything else, this sounds like a lullaby... some kind of lullaby for machines, explaining to them about love because they don't understand it. i'm not as blown away by this one lyrically as i have been by the last few, but the words work with the melody, so i shan't complain. also, i am into the use of "decay", since it sounds like "DK", as did Sara's use of the word in "When He Goes".
