| I was a modern man, I had a future plan
|
| I saw myself doing fine
|
| I had a vision, I made my decisions
|
| But I was a victim of time
|
| Caught in a fantasy, I saw reality
|
| Gazing at me from the stars
|
| But when I turn around, nothing is to be found
|
| Some place is always too far
|
| I was a happy man, joining the caravan
|
| Keeping my place in the line
|
| Founding a family, life in simplicity
|
| Then I was cheated by time
|
| Beaten by destiny, nothing appears to be
|
| Lasting as long as it takes
|
| Calendar tallyman, here in your wonderland
|
| Nothing is safer than fakes
|
| But I see the pale horizon
|
| In the quiet of the dawn
|
| And the morning is arising
|
| With the daylight of my own
|
| And I feel it’s now or never
|
| As the choir starts to hum
|
| It’s a hot line, straight to heaven
|
| And my mind is getting numb
|
| And I stand up and I haven
|
| And I stuble and l fall
|
| As I reach out for forever
|
| And the kingdom —
|
| The kingdom of nothing at all
|
| And the morning will surround you
|
| With its everlasting gold
|
| But the colour of deception
|
| Is the demon you behold
|
| And the choir in the distance
|
| Is the screaming from below
|
| And denying their existence
|
| Is confirming that you know
|
| That you’re left back with a riddle
|
| 'Cause the greatest dream of all
|
| Got you trapped down in the middle of the kingdom —
|
| The kingdom of nothing at all
|
| So come on, we’ll- take you on a free ride
|
| Come on, a journey on the inside
|
| Come on, hang on, it’s shining in the distance
|
| Come on, let go of your resistance
|
| Hang on, come on, get ready for the inside
|
| Get rid of you fear |
