Push the time Change your place Dive into the ether Open your eyes to another space
Under one sky Dissolve into four pieces Segregate the night Do not rise too high
Still your bones are rusted Still the wheels are aching You can't keep it all to your mind And again the train is passing you by
This is your life Open your mouth Try to breathe in the moonlight Try to sip in the blackness
This is your love Swallow it slowly Anchor it deep inside you Learn to embrace the pain
And your lungs are filled And your eyes roll over You need to breathe if you want to die alive And the seed inside you's growing
Under one sky This is your life This is your love Push the time
Dive into the ether Open your mouth Dissolve into four pieces Learn to embrace the pain
take out those lines
why?
the first two bolded lines break the rhythm
well not in the song. spoken, maybe, but also not really, but definitely not with the music. It's splitting up the one longer syllable, for example of dive, into two short ones.

and the last line has nothing to do with the rest of the poem.
that is not true. it's more or less the main contents of the song. there are different kinds of pain, and different ways of embracing it.
