"Tachyon" Lyrics

I'm curious. How did you get to Earth?
It's a matter of harnessing the energy of light
I know that sounds crazy to you
You beings are eons away from discovering light travel
According to a man who lived on our planet named Einstein
Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light?
What Einstein actually said was that nothing can
Accelerate to the speed of light because its mass would become infinite
Einstein said nothing about entities already traveling
At the speed of light or faster at tachyon speeds

Why did you want to come to our planet?
Well, I've been here many times before
But what brought me here first?
Pure curiosity, I guess
I'd never been to a Class BA-3 planet before
Early stage of evolution
Future uncertain
