Isle of the Cheetah Lyrics
Chance brought me down on your side, she's just along for the ride.
Wings melt and we hide, and all this means nothing to the sun.
Are we leaving this one?
Mine comes true here, bruised, expanding clear.
Mind full of you here, I won't claim losses in the sun.
Are we leaving this one?
And swift out, she goes to the last frame.
Short lives and long days and if I stay, then we'll lay way to you.
Your ocean spreads out on sunbeams, radiant, knowing.
And your hand looks so nice in mine.
And its been a thousand years seen since inception, and you're radiant, glowing.
And they say that you're doing fine.
Your ocean spreads out on sunbeams, radiant, knowing.
Your hand looks so nice in mine.
And the new construct will have both of us, stapled to the island for awhile.
And they say that you're doing fine.
Wings melt and we hide, and all this means nothing to the sun.
Are we leaving this one?
Mind full of you here, I won't claim losses in the sun.
Are we leaving this one?
Short lives and long days and if I stay, then we'll lay way to you.
And your hand looks so nice in mine.
And its been a thousand years seen since inception, and you're radiant, glowing.
And they say that you're doing fine.
Your hand looks so nice in mine.
And the new construct will have both of us, stapled to the island for awhile.
And they say that you're doing fine.

this song.. so awesome especially the bridge, what with that chugging bass and the solo with the harmonics. Awesome.
but i don't think you have the lyrics right
This is the greatest song ever. 'Downward Is Heavenward' is one of those awesome albums that you can listen to all the way through. Hum = Rock Gods.

Best song on the album!
Bada** song! It always makes me think of me and my girlfriend. Lol. Oh, and I don't think the lyrics are right either.
Hum lyrics (especially on this album) are usually a scientific slant towards the ineffability of the human experience. Anyone who has experienced psychedelic (or otherwise) ego loss should understand that the best way to explain the mystery of life is to not even try.
