[Intro Acoustic Lead: Perry]
|
|
Out in the distance the voices are calling
|
High in the night, the sirens are blaring
|
Will we survive or just fade away...
|
|
Humankind bleeding with arrogance
|
To not realize they're so insignificant
|
Adapt to change and leave the Earth behind...
|
Behind... Behind!
|
|
Flame of life - reach the core of space
|
Suspend time - reach eternity
|
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
The unknown is waiting
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
Memory is fading
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
Words are forever
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
The unknown is waiting
|
|
When the final days are approaching
|
Watch the arrogant ones burn themselves out
|
Legacy of the obscure
|
The remaining force going beyond... beyond...
|
|
Flame of life the creative mind
|
Suspend time reach throughout the years
|
Flame of life reach the core of space
|
Suspend time reach eternity
|
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
The unknown is waiting
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
Memory is fading
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
Words are forever
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
The unknown is waiting
|
|
[Leads: Perry, Dan]
|
|
To die as a pauper, while memories remains
|
To live an outsider, outcast from this time
|
Masses fall into self destruction
|
Vanish from greed into oblivion
|
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
The unknown is waiting
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
Memory is fading
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
Words are forever
|
Won't you tell my future?
|
The unknown is waiting
|
