Lyrics for 5 D (Fifth Dimension)

Oh, how is it that I could come out to here And be still floatin' And never hit bottom and keep falling through Just relaxed and paying attention? All my two-dimensional boundaries were gone I had lost to them badly I saw that world crumble and thought I was dead But I found my senses still working And as I continued to drop through the hole I found all surrounding To show me that joy innocently is Just be quiet and feel it around you And I opened my heart to the whole universe And I found it was lovin' And I saw the great blunder my teachers had made Scientific delerium madness I will keep falling as long as I live Ah, without ending And I will remember the place that is now That has ended before the beginning Oh, how is it that I could come out to here And be still floatin' And never hit bottom and keep falling through Just relaxed and paying attention?
