They say it was a mountain, in before times, in the past
Now sand has covered all / it's underground but still it lasts
And all that I've known so far away; I'm walking away
This sight by light of night so much different when seen by the light of day
There has to be more out there in the ruins far from me
It has never been done but I must go I must see
All that I have known so far away; I'm walking away
This sight by light of night so much different when seen by the light of day.
Ancient places no one can explore, I have to know more
Yet night's light brings dangers so much stranger that what I have seen before...

walking through the wreckage and taking what we can
cannot say a better way or claim we have a plan
possessions give purpose and goods to redeem
the foolish and dead can dream
years beneath the surface we dreamed of better days
all the while the world dissolved and nothing we survey
now has any meaning beyond the things we need
the drive of our life is greed
we we are never wrong
and this world is here to satisfy our needs
all that we know is the same and nothing changes
so we travel onward wherever it leads
who'd imagine bluebirds and the songs they'd sing
or believe in love and hope or other useless things
we're aware of scorpions and other things that sting
the strongest are always king
who could get there first will be the one who takes the prize
second helpings are a myth like different colored eyes
all the same and all alone and marching over sand
this is not a changing land
we have heard the stories of life begun anew
but see no signs of life in anything we do
we would come to reap the wealth from life underground
but people have not been found
travelling at night because the daylight hurts to see
cold and slow and constant is the cure for misery
then beneath the moonlight a stranger walked right through
and now we are watching you

Walking down, moving forward
the past is cold beneath my feet
and turned on its side
A darkness faces me
I head a sound from the distance
can't say what makes it yet
from all around me
still moving sideways, down
It's like home here.. yet not..
the walls are built the same
stripped of comfort
cold, stone remains..

This thing is moving fast as it climbs
"Can we slow down? can we slow? First I must know"
why were you trapped all this time?
(what is that I've let go?)
___
never mind the pace I make
this world has lost a chance to take
it's prize, it's all lies
while from under this building I cried:
"if we overthrow the impossible the yoke of form has got to go the mind isn't kind by design. "
I must finish the plan you can't understand
this world was misaligned by man
I dream as machine in the head instead we tread the place
I mean
to remake
the current state is a mistake
if they listened, my condition
would bring about remission
___
And I see it now
This is the way we all end
a plague that walks like a man
The end walks before me
"You mean us harm...
I can't let you leave here"
i don't know how to stop it
but I must try
____
ah, at last the light of day
i do believe now we part ways
I thank you for releasing me
I'll return the favor and set you free
have a safe trip I'll see you next fall
(you probably don't get that one at all)
it's been a blast but you don't understand
so I banish you now to the the heat and the sand

Taken without reason
Bound and hauled away
Everyone you've ever known
Nothing you can say
Cannot change the Present
The past infects its heart
The future's where I now must go
To make a better start
And tomorrow stops the past that takes today
