Overture 02:35

Oh, at light speed When the days get old Spacetime starts to fold And gravity's lost hold Falling into the rhythm Of the bending and the fugue-ing of the cosmos Oh, at light speed You forget your name Each day looks the same At infinite mass there's no pain Looking back through the blackness 'Cuz everyone you've ever loved Has passed away And I can't stand the sounds of space Barking through my ears each day It screws my head and cooks my brain Length contracts and time dilates You get high You get high, high so f*cking high at Light speed Yeah you're body aches but you can't come down Feel so bad but you can't come down Stare at your hands but you can't come down You've got dry mouth but you can't come down You've got the cosmic munchies but you can't come down And you can't order pizza but you can't come down And there's no one to talk to but you can't come down And you can't call your wife but you can't come down You try to blow out the airlock but you can't come down You try to bite off your fingers but you can't come down You got the diarrhea but you can't come down And you're seeing spiders but you can't come down No you can't come down, no you can't come down You can't come down, no you can't come down You're tripping balls but you can't come down No you can't come down, no you can never come down from Light Speed

I've been rolling 'round the multiverse I've been looking for meaning where there wasn't even meaning Oh, trying not to go Quietly, with a whimper Go into the black night Into the white light Into the history books If there's any left To write I've been rolling 'round the multiverse
4.
Oh, my darling Without you Nothing matters There's no meaning On this orbiting rock careening Through a cosmic maelstrom Defined by space and time And matter And dark matter And gravity And energy And if you fell into a supercollider And your atoms were scattered throughout the stars And if you fell into a black hole And your mass was ripped apart I'd still find you Cuz without you Nothing matters There's no meaning On this orbiting rock careening Through a cosmic maelstrom Defined by space and time And matter And dark matter And gravity And energy

You maybe think we sound Like meow, meow, meow, meow, meow But your world has turned and soon will crumble And in your absence We are kings So listen to me now Block out familiar sounds And cast your gaze across the water And all you'll see is time All the answers Lie across The Great Freshwater Sea Doesn't really matter Doesn't bother me All the answers Lie across The Great Freshwater Sea Questions without answers What will be will be
7.
Out here Past the bring Where particle and wave Are out of sync Through the open door Beyond time and space The only remanents Of the human race A broken telephone A rusted out trombone I'll never make it home To tell a living soul Out here In the great unknown I am all alone Far from home In the aftermath Of a trans-dimensional war With Fermi's great filter Knocking at the door And I'll never make it home To tell a living soul What lies beyond our reach Perhaps we are not meant to know Out here To find my wife and cat But I f*cked it up No turning back Now a refugee In the multiverse And everything I touch Becomes another barren Earth My actions are my own Things I can't condone I'll never make it home To tell a living soul

about

Captain Nick Di Gaetano is is an astronaut from an advanced parallel Earth and the only known human to travel at the Speed of Light. He's kind of a big deal. After an accident of cosmic proportions he finds himself lost amongst millions of possible Earths and pursued across space and time by genocidal raccoons.

Unbridled Futurism is a collection of songs from Nick Di Gaetano's wildly successful Sci-Fi Comedy Rock Show that blends cinema, rock concerts and absurd character comedy into theatrical experience exploring what it means to be human among the vast and indifferent cosmos while reassuring us that if we ever thought our lives had no meaning - they do now.
