World Stops Lyrics - Jandek

At the end of the trip 

Blank and sudden (?) going back 

Voyage terminated at long last 

Waiting for the high-speed rocket 

Take me back to where I know 

The ride's not easy, it's not calm 

But going back at long last 

All the faces, all the voices 

Somehow I stay at the back of it all 

Watching my body go through the motions 

In a slice of time and space 

Guess I was there, I surely must have been 

It's a simple memory hangs near past (fast?) 

But going back at long last 

Somehow seems so much more important 

Looking through all the events 

Clear on out to single points 

Where it's quiet and still 

At the end of the trip 

The world stops
