Time
Space
They’re both relative
They don’t mean a thing
Right now we’re alone
A moonlit dance floor
Rapt in your eyes
Lost in Paradise
What happened
How did we get here
It wasn’t so long ago
We weren’t even friends
Now I can’t go on
Not without you
So caught in your smile
Lost in Paradise
A long drive home
Back road wind catching your hair
Moonlight beauty
Saying she’s all mine
The future ahead
The pain all behind
Your lips against mine
Lost in Paradise
A long trip
But you’re here
In the seat next to me
A misread of directions
The beautiful country
But at least we’re together
We’ll make it out alive
Kill my pride for directions
Lost in Paradise
A day not too distant
White all around
I’ve never been so nervous
Then beauty in a gown
The longest walk yet
Then a shower of rice
I promise you myself
And we’re lost in Paradise
And sometime down the road
Around life’s twists and bends
Two rocking chairs
Surrounded by grandkids
Two old people
Still madly in love
Going to leave for the skies
Get lost in Paradise
This future is crazy this future is lucid
never knew this future would be so euphoric
endless horizons unending pleasures
warm sensations of paradise of eternal life
The future doesn't hit you all at once, it comes on slowly,
dulling your awareness of the technological advances,
until the day you look back on the years past and realize how much has changed,
either in amazement or fear.
Against the pale complexion of his ashen skin,
the orange glow of the fires burned bright.
As he stood alone in the field, watching what remained of his kind rising into the star lit sky,
his eyes filled with sorrow.
The minds that fueled the new machines were not his own;
they died with the flesh bodies, and now he remained the last;
alone in a dark new world,
a mechanized hell where the only hope for a rebirth coursed through his veins.
He turned his eyes toward the heavens.
The ascension of the soul begins with the new program...
when the human/computer interface comes into use in 2017,
the human consciousness will become one with the new God;
the uploading of the neuro-soul into the new heaven.
And in the realm of dreamscapes
Where water’s thick as oil
Dust coats the tongues of wanderers
Who earn a pittance for their toil
And a girl now twenty
Stood hanging out the wash
And with each grimy sheet she hung
She counted what was lost
And the gritty clapboard shanty
The one that she called home
Was empty and was hollow
She was all alone-
The horizon went forever
As they do only in dreams
The tears she wiped from her cheeks
Weren’t what they seemed
They came away as glass
She had cried priceless jewels
She gathered tears in her apron
To hide them from the fools
In the jewels’ reflection
She saw what was to be
Gathered up her courage
Determined to be free
And in the realm of dreamscapes
Where wanderers pass on by
She took hold of dreams she cried
And waved them all goodbye
past was mine
present is mine
but future will not be mine
at that time i have to think far away
think far away from my life
forget the past
forget the future
i have to take a line
i have to take that line
which change my mind
forget about heart
only i have to think about mind
cause this is gonna be my future mind
now i'm not serious for it
not wanna be serious
after three months my future come
future will not be mine
don't know what happen of my dream
become an engineer that is my aim
and make a band that is my dream
this is not a night dream
this is a fun life of my dream
but become an engineer it for
for settle my future life
that is mine but not
exactly mine
