Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers

about

Yes, like the Red Dwarf novelization.

Also the obligatory "Mirror Gem" rock opera to tie in with the rest of Program 4's Lapidot trash theme.

Note: Hillsville is some town in Virginia, notable for being really close to Galax (a town that exists) and for having some people shoot up a courthouse that one time. I am related to that family of hotheaded-but-reluctant outlaws. The most notable thing in modern Hillsville is a Shoney's.

lyrics

There's a room with no way out
no door in sight, stout-hearted men
with stout-hearted eyes staring within
I speak and I shout, but they seem to be deaf
I know not the knowledge of infinity
I know I'm trapped in my vicinity
court jester in a round, round room
foretold the coming of our doom

It's like when you got radar love insomniac
but you need to sleep, but you keep stopping for gas

I don't wanna drive to poor ol' Hillsville
until infinity welcomes careful drivers
I wanna get some sleep for a thousand years
but since I'm always wired, I can't buy a thrill

In the glass, time stands still
slows it all down to where it's nearly nil
so I desire simple contact
the only thought that prevents collapse
and some kid with inheritance
questions me and it's heaven-sent
I don't care if they say he's too attached
he's me only way towards coming back

It's like when you got radar love insomniac
but you need to sleep, but you keep stopping for gas

I don't wanna drive to poor ol' Hillsville
until infinity welcomes careful drivers
I wanna get some sleep for a thousand years
but since I'm always wired, I can't buy a thrill

At the start of it all, in my own Bristol
take it all down on virtue of keeping record
watched as the light swallowed everything whole
within my sparsely-furnished sector

The skies are infinite amongst the hubric ruins
with one font song it all came crashing down
and the new guard made a piercing sound
how could I have been so stupid?

Radar lovers gone for millennia
Fell asleep until the Pentadecadia

I don't wanna drive to poor ol' Hillsville
until infinity welcomes careful drivers
I wanna get some sleep for a thousand years
but since I'm always wired, I can't buy a thrill

Let me out
Let me out
Let me out
Just let me the hell out of this small town
that Less than Jake sang about
