[Intro]
This is the first station
Extending upward into the skull
Such as the action of the heart
Such as... the human brain
This is the first station
Extending upward into the skull
Such as the action of the heart
Such as... the human brain
(Six degrees)
This is the first station
Extending upward into the skull
(Six degrees)
Such as the action of the heart
Such as... the human brain
(Six degrees)
This is the first station
Extending upward into the skull
(Six degrees)
Such as the action of the heart
Such as... the human brain
[Verse 1]
Six degrees: it's a far away place
Where love goes to disappear without a trace
It's a place I know you've never been before
Because if you did, you wouldn't treat me like a whore
Limerence: it's the feeling of obsession
A feeling that lacks clear co-communication
A cyclical feeling of intermittent reinforcement
It's never occurred with my explicit endorsement
[Chorus]
Six degrees and long ago
Lonely in a zoo (the human brain)
That's how long it takes, you know
Till it all gets back to you (the action of the heart)
For the words you've never heard
And all the things you never knew (the human brain)
That's how long it takes, you know
To travel, to travel back to you
[Post-Chorus]
This is the first station
(Six, six, six, six) This is the first station
(Six, six, six)
(Six, six, six)
[Verse 2]
I’m craving, I’m craving; hedonistically raving
I’m tired of sinning and lying, misbehaving
I can’t go on actin' like your tool
On the tarot deck, card zero: The Fool
All the little moments and all the little gestures
Staring at the wall and memorizing textures
One more thing I keep forgettin' to mention:
Thank you for affection, time, and your attention
[Chorus]
Six degrees and long ago
Lonely in a zoo (the human brain)
That's how long it takes, you know
Till it all gets back to you (the action of the heart)
For the words you've never heard
And all the things you never knew (the human brain)
That's how long it takes, you know
To travel, to travel back to you
[Bridge]
The human brain
The action of the heart
The human brain
[Interlude]
The human brain
The action of the heart
The human brain
(To travel back to you)
[Outro]
Six degrees and long ago
Lonely in a zoo (The human brain)
That's how long it takes, you know
Till it all gets back to you (The action of the heart)
For the words you've never heard
And all the things you never knew (The human brain)
That's how long it takes, you know
To travel, to travel back to you
(Six degrees)

[Intro]
(Six, six, six, six, six, six)
(Six, six, six, six, six, six)
(Six, six, six, six, six, six)
(Six, six, six, six, six, six)
(Six, six, six, six, six, six)
(Six, six, six, six, six, six)
[Verse]
(To travel back to you)
Six degrees and long ago
Lonely in a zoo
That's how long it takes, you know
Till it all gets back to you
For the words you've never heard
And all the things you never knew
That's how long it takes, you know
To travel, to travel back to you
[Outro]
To travel back to you
To travel back to you
To travel back to you
To travel back to you

Ryder Houston Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Ryder Harrison Houston is an American filmmaker and musician from Dallas, Texas. As much as his evocative sound dotes on alternative pop acts Depeche Mode, Garbage, and even Madonna at her most controversial, his inky discography remains adhered to a certain groovy allusion to chopped-and-screwed electronica with his spidery vocals weaving clichés of lust and rock ‘n’ roll menace anew. ... more
