Epicycles

https://releases.redcaesarscenario.com/downloads/epicycles-ep/ You said the longer road Is the path that proves what's true To let go and walk away Is what weaker people do You called it vision, you drew the line You worked it out in your own design And it might take a while longer But you know the proof will show in time She was too far above your world A star striding upon the stage You shifted center to reach for her Moved the compass across your page You changed your frame of reference To make it work for one more day You were oh so kind and deferent But the model slipped away Another arc sketched a brace To make it still align You saw it work before It will work again this time You made a space upon the chart To keep your mind at ease You turned the arrow pointing forward To find a different East You said it proved itself With every added line The more it failed to hold The more it seemed to shine Another curve to dodge the truth Before the ink was even dry Another line wedged on the paper Another circle in the sky You made the system beautiful So you wouldn't have to move the sun
