Perhaps the only pop/rock tune to be written about the tragic fall of Sophia into the depressing material world.
lyrics
Who's to say it wasn't meant to be this way
You can never tell for sure, after all
Our Sister, always curious to look over the wall
She looked too long into the void
And one day it looked back, and she fell
Down, down, down - dirty dirty water
no one caught her
dirty dirty water
she's coming back up again!
She lived in a castle by the sea
Where time and tide might wash away in vain
White white walls, dark dark waves
From up above the storm and clouds,
She came crashing down, and she fell
chorus
Can something turn to nothing
When nothing is nothing at all?
All that dirty water, all that time below
It's gonna vanish when she makes it home
