Fragments - The Stupendium

Oh my… Ratchet, the Dimensionator has sent us to a dimension where not

everybody is subscribed to The Stupendium!

Quickly, hit the red button to send

us back!

Hehehehe…

So things seem stable, it’s beginning to all make sense

But on the periodic table equilibrium ain’t that dense

So you’re top of every playbill?

You’ve been living as the main event?

Live a life on red carpet, you can’t be surprisd when you ask where th rug went

When it’s pulled out from under your feet

Fronting parades to confronting defeat

Dumped in the rain unfamiliar streets

But there’s nothing to gain by admitting you’re beat

Maybe it ain’t quite as grim as it seems

Don’t get to choose the loose screws you inherit

That’s more than a face in the mirror you’re seeing

Together you’ve got the tools to repair it

Might just be a Lombax with a wrench

I was sat on the bench, now I’m back with a vengeance

Smashed my dimension, so Ratchet’s suggestion?

Mechanical emperors should cash their pensions

Graduate from the school of harder knocks

Than the Grade-A plates of my Carbonox

When I take straight aim with my blaster shots

The reports say rain with some parts of bots

When realities collide, it’s appealing to think

There’s green on the other side, well you’re wielding the Sprinkler

The world’s what you make, it’s your fate’s not ingrained

Every crack in the paint’s still a piece of the picture

Every crack in the paint’s still a piece of the picture

Look past the pieces and you’ll see there’s more adventure to seize

Don’t believe it?

Then you’re thinking one-dimensionally

So this world is not the one that you intended to be?

Well a Rivet’s what you need when things might tear at the seams

It’s your turn to revolt in every turn of the bolt

Take the world on your shoulders, then turn it to gold

When you’ve crashed into fragments of all that you know

Well you’re far from alone, we’re just a rift apart

A rift apart

We’re just a rift apart

A rift apart

So it seems your outlook can be warped

Whole schemes cut off like some jean shorts

Keep tracking 'em down and the heat source

Leads you to keen sword swings at machine sorts

Keep breathing, it’s all gonna pass in a season

Believe it and call it a flash in the pan and release it

Let a thought stop with a dash

And you’ll leave it all looking real small in the past

A Shatterbomb to your artwork

Can make it feel like your heart burst

It’s hard to know what to start first

Each step becomes a departure

And you may feel like a drifter

Resist a place in the mixture

Is this a crack in the rift or

Another piece of the picture

Another piece of the picture

Look past the pieces and you’ll see there’s more adventure to seize

Don’t believe it?

Then you’re thinking one-dimensionally

So this world is not the one that you intended to be?

Well a Rivet’s what you need when things might tear at the seams

It’s your turn to revolt in every turn of the bolt

Take the world on your shoulders, then turn it to gold

When you’ve crashed into fragments of all that you know

Well you’re far from alone, we’re just a rift apart

A rift apart

We’re just a rift apart

A rift apart

There’s one thing rarer than Raritanium, that’s a fate that don’t seem alien

No matter how long you’ve been on that grind, life soon find ways of derailing

Any Infobot will say the same again if a legacy’s planting seeds

You’d better believe I’m leaving these enemies in leaves and geraniums

Though chance may choose our canvas, only we can paint the hues

But your flaws don’t mean you’re broken, they’re just deeper shades of you

Combination of Sagan and

Bob Ross

, no mistakes when repainting the cosmos

If things seem grey, it’s the start of a gradient, can’t make hay without

raking the compost

Where dimensions fragment and the shards reconnect

You’ll find you’re not defined, by the past they reflect

Leaving one world behind, can be hard to expect

But you’ll work out in time a new path in the next

When your reality cracks, it can feel like forever

Trapped in the gaps as the pieces are severed

If you feel you could lapse all you need is a tether

To that team at your back you can keep it together

Look past the pieces and you’ll see there’s more adventure to seize

Don’t believe it?

Then you’re thinking one-dimensionally

So your world is on the brink of some Nefarious scheme?

Well a Rivet’s what you need when things might tear at the seams

It’s your turn to revolt in every turn of the bolt

Take the world on your shoulders, then turn it to gold

When you’ve crashed into fragments of all that you know

Well you’re far from alone, we’re just a rift apart

A rift apart

We’re just a rift apart

A rift apart

And with every new world that unfurls you will find

There is more to your life than the one you designed

There is far more to fight for

Than what you are leaving behind
