[futureman]
|
from the cities underseas
|
to the skyways in the east
|
from the stations on the moon
|
to the planet of neptune
|
I'm a sophisticated man
|
and you would say I'd understand
|
is it a virtual design?
|
are we launched into a time beyond time
|
space beyond space
|
we are lost here in this cyberworld
|
is there no way out?
|
|
[knight]
|
I don't understand your words
|
they strike as hard as steel
|
I'm sworn to the sacred quest on the isle of Avalon
|
to retrieve the magic chalice
|
which holds the power to heal
|
only the pure of heart are received into the realm
|
|
[roman]
|
just look around you now and tell me what you see
|
a world full of treachery
|
skies of silver and seas of gold
|
the past is young and the future old
|
we're closed in by iron gates
|
beyond them Elysium waits
|
far away on the edge of the world in a time beyond time
|
space beyond space
|
we are lost here in the underworld
|
is there no way out?
|
|
[futureman]
|
from the birthcry of our race
|
to the mysteries of space
|
I'm an educated man
|
and you would say I'd understand
|
|
[repeat all]
