Invisible Light Lyrics
You are my Zion
A pacing tiger
A keeper’s cage
Invisible light
Shoots from your eyes
A sign I can see from my high rise
Another monkey falls
Just open up your joy
And let the sailors climb the walls
I thought I saw you laughing
Ten feet in the air
Doesn’t matter if they touch you where
they cut you
Can you give me
To keep me alive
Electric all the tension
I can feel it with the fingers
in my mind
Gets hotter by the hour
I found you a flower
In a field
Of my invention
Among the tired
Among the poor
Among the broken
The huddled masses
It’s your time
It changes all the time
I’ll call you anything you want
If I can say it’s mine
The story’s never-ending
Our footprint’s been erased
Well here you are
I kiss a feeling
I see your mouth
Though is it really?
To keep me alive
So kinetic this dimension
Can’t you feel it bend
your sense of time
To keep me alive
undoubtedly the best song out of their album. eerie and surreal.
@carcrashkiss I agree it's their best song. What I want to know is who wrote it. I accept that it references The Neverending Story but I want to know what all the other references are pertaining to Babylon and Zion. The Wikipedia entry for the song tells about how the video was influenced by movies, but doesn't say anything about the song meaning or who wrote it.

Cant help but point out the reference to "Neverending story" by Michael Ende:
Will you answer to a new name? It changes all the time I'll call you anything you want If I can say it's mine The story's never-ending Our footprint's been erased
It seems to be about The Neverending story and how Moonchild keeps her kingdom together with her ''invisible light''. Maybe they call it that way because it's the opposite of The Nothing, which is described as ''it's like you're blind when you look into it''.

I thought I saw you laughing Ten feet in the air Doesn’t matter if they touch you where they cut you Can you give me
An invisible light To keep me alive Electric all the tension I can feel it with the fingers in my mind
