Decision Of The Skies Lyrics - Bridge - Blues Traveler

When you're living in a series of atmospheres 

You don't stand upon the world, but within it 

And the faster that you move, the lighter you become 

The further out you go, the better the view 

And you wanna rise 

So that you can last 

Take it all in slowly 

Real fast 

The capsule goes at 17,000 miles an hour 

To make the sky act like a pond 

And if it should slow down 

Then the mighty ship will sink 

As if falling through the sea 

And you wanna last 

So, you're destinationed for the outskirts 

Thinks the answer lies beyond 

But the slower that you go 

The more substantial you become 

Come to rest against the pure and solid center 

And you wanna last 

So that you might rise 

Floating endlessly 

From the decision of the skies 

The decision of the skies 

The farthest you can go is right behind you 

And the closest you can come is nowhere near 

And it could make you wonder where 

When you're discussing here or there 

And do you really have to get going 

When you're living, you're just a series of atmospheres 

Whatever velocity you're in 

And no matter how you move 

You're going to become 

You cannot end and there's no beginning 

And nothing lasts 

And only time really flies 

And you're always free 

From the decision of the skies 

The decision of the skies
