2001
We are all left alone on this island
Learning to fend for ourselves
Left with our reflections
We wash up on the shore
Everyone is smaller than us
We are tied up on the beach
We squander every opportunity
Fall back on the common
Waging war as a place of refuge
Waves as big as dinosaurs
Wash away the shorelines
Taking dreams away
Centuries pass
We descend from the mountains
Huddled into reclaim the land
Someone finds the recipe for Ice 9
Declares a totalitarian state
Finds Soma in the desert
To the center of the earth
Where there is a paradise
Crystalline
We must form a fellowship
Return the ring to its origin
And get back to the responsibility of mutual respect
I enter the room a young man
Fresh from space
I age, I die, I am reborn.
The theme came on the radio as I was reading this...good sign or terrifying sign??
