Infinitely Light Years Songtext
von Steven Page

One single beam of light
Travels through an endless night
Several million years until we see it
In treatises and articles
These waves that act like particles
Are particles that act like waves as well
Well
In pondering duality
Reality seems light years away

Until I met you
My world was so small
I didn′t understand at all
But suddenly my problems
Seem light years away


Why rely on metaphor (Until I met you)
To illustrate and underscore
That the thing that nature most abhors is needed
To prove the one thing we can trust (Until I met you)
The chaos and the calculus
The speed of light can never be exceeded

One single beam of light
Travels through an endless night
Several million years until we see it
In treatises and articles (Until I met you)
These waves that act like particles (My world was so small)
Are particles that act like waves as well (I didn't understand at all)
Well
In pondering duality (But suddenly my problems)
Reality seems light years away (seem light years away)

In a distant galaxy
Farther than the eye can see
A photon is entangled with another
And even if they separate
We can′t describe one's quantum state
Without describing both of them as well
Well
Their every feature correlates
Communicates from light years away


The edge of the Universe is moving forward
Moving farther away
The edge of the Universe is moving forward
Moving farther away
The edge of the Universe is moving forward
Moving farther away

Entanglement so intimate
Yet infinitely light years away
Entanglement so intimate
Yet infinitely light years away
Entanglement so intimate
Yet infinitely light years
Infinitely light years
Infinitely light years away
