Galaxies on Demand

[Verse 1 — shimmering synth, odd meter]
I spin the planets to your favorite song
Move Saturn's rings when they look wrong
A thousand stars are burning bright
You ask why one fell out tonight

[Pre-Chorus — glassy harmonies]
Beyond the dome there's real night air
I haven't seen it in a year

[Chorus — widescreen melody]
I made you galaxies on demand
And lost the ground beneath my hands
The one dark star becomes the story
Not the sky I brought to life
I'd switch the whole machine to silence
Make this ceiling blank and wide
But all these faces came for wonder
And I can't bear to steal their night
(Their night, my night)

[Verse 2 — syncopated low bass]
You ask for dawn at half past ten
I turn the painted heavens once again

[Bridge — tempo drop]
If I can move the universe
Why can't I move one inch toward mine?

[Outro — high harmony]
The dome is full, the door is near
I stay and make the stars appear
