The Solar System Lyrics
now you're gone, i won't fall, fall in the fire
oh no, i am lacking, i want what i see
you fireball have rolled away, in shaded valleys
so here i am the creek bed, so here i feel my way in the dark
what wonder, what treasure map, what breaking of day
what stream used to flow here, and now what dusty decay
let the flash flood begin, wash me down there canyon
quicksand pull me in, blow over me solar wind
you're vultures in trees, i know you're out there
you're lanterns on lakes, i know you're out there
you're soccer balls on knees, through your skirt i see
youre legs gracefully, i know you're out there
you're swaying and pleased, i know you're out there
you're vultures and tress, i know you're out there
you're mountainous peaks, don't let gravity win
blow on me solar wind, i know you're out there
oh no, i am lacking, i want what i see
you fireball have rolled away, in shaded valleys
so here i am the creek bed, so here i feel my way in the dark
what wonder, what treasure map, what breaking of day
what stream used to flow here, and now what dusty decay
let the flash flood begin, wash me down there canyon
quicksand pull me in, blow over me solar wind
you're vultures in trees, i know you're out there
you're lanterns on lakes, i know you're out there
you're soccer balls on knees, through your skirt i see
youre legs gracefully, i know you're out there
you're swaying and pleased, i know you're out there
you're vultures and tress, i know you're out there
you're mountainous peaks, don't let gravity win
blow on me solar wind, i know you're out there

I know that you're out there
I know that you're out there
my personal favourite microphones song. for me, this song is about love. knowing love is out there. knowing someone is out there for you. knowing that SHE is out there. somewhere. TRUE LOVE WAITS.
in this chapter of Mount Eerie, i think phil is climbing the mountain and is haunted by the memories of a girl, symbolized by the vultures that await him at his death. one of the most beautiful microphones songs.
This song is about his relationship with god. At this point in the story his faith is unquestioning and just wants to be closer to god. The soccer balls on knees I think is an metaphor for planets that keep coming up over the horizon and god is the force that keeps kicking them up into the air
