Burden of Proof

Can you… can you see darkness?
Outside your windowpane,
behind the reflection of rooms?
Have you… Have you told others this?
Have you tried to go out there?
Will you take them… take them too?

Can you… can you see darkness?
Patches on perfect spheres,
spots on the sun, little moons?
Can you… can you see darkness?
People who carry it?
All the ways, the places it moves?

Have you… Have you told the others this?
Have you tried to tell them this?
Have you tried to say that the earth moves?
They won’t see it, they won’t see you,
and they will lock you into a room.

In a room, they’re gonna leave you there
without any telescopes,
without anything you could use.
They’ll block exits, they’ll build you a tomb.
Yes, they will build for you
the most beautiful, perfect tomb.

They won’t see it,
how, still, it moves,
so they will lock you
into a room.
