"For a few days I was beside myself in joyous excitement." -Albert Einstein.
With my own two hands I bring a gift for you
Today starts a brand new era fueled by gratitude
Everything I had wished for came true today
The world that I live in may yet sustain
But I don't know how to express my joy!
Everything is relative to everything
Who's to say who is falling and who is balancing
Presented here before you a new device of mine
Which alters your perception of space and time
A ship that can pick you up and take you anywhere
But you don't have to move to get there
Please follow me to your wildest dreams!

Is it any wonder? Any wonder why he walked away?
He sees what he's observing
Nothing gets passed his senses
The more he sees the more he knows
He relays the entire message
He discovers a flaw
And understands the cause
Nothing about this distracts him
He knows the problems are going to cost him
More than the good news will pay
Shes alarmed by cosmetics
Style and comforts a must
Somebody told her the good news
And this is the news she can trust
She discovers a flaw
And measures out the cost
Thinking entirely with lust
Is it any wonder?

I've got it made
Now you can finally see
Anything you want
Become reality
Tell me your dreams
Describe them to the "T"
And put the list inside my
Fantasy Machine
And then you will see everything your eyes were meant to see!
Remember if you dare
Your dreams will take you there
A childhood memento
Your favorite teddy bear
Remember his touch
Fluffy yet rough
His missing button eye
And patches on the side
And now you may see everything your eyes were meant to see!
My Fantasy Machine
Never makes a thing
The bear was not inside until
You saw it with your eyes
And then you could see everything your eyes were meant to see!

There was a time in our history when heroes
Were brutes and oafs
And the world that we lived in
Was down on its hopes
Intelligent people
Were generally hated
And the dull were praised
And the bright degraded
Three generations have passed
Since the new age
When our perceptions of class
Were so sick and deranged
Inversely related
To the depopulated
There was a surplus of knowledge
And a lack of hatred
Give us a moment give us your time and please express your mind
Tell us what can your research offer the world?
Fame is your reward!
Because no one ever changed the world for better
With poetry, song or witty banter
The social elite want you to meet these
Guidelines to benefit the species
To get ahead in this world
You must be inventive
There is no benefit
In being aggressive
Just think of what war has done
It's only a burden
Today you can see
Entertainers
But they certainly fall
Under a label
They give a short term feeling
With no deeper meaning
What was once respected
Is now shameful

Oh well I just heard an old timey song
But the chorus that is had was all wrong
I think it was worse
Than the bridge and the verse
And in general it seemed a bit long
At first it was not all that bad
I can see how it started a fad
With its steady bass drum
And a riff I can hum
For a while there I was quite glad
But then the song made me feel bored
With the same stuff I'd heard all before
Like "Lets go out and drink
'til my brain cannot think
And then lets go find us some whores!"
And now this old song makes me laugh
With its auto tuned titties and ass
But the twenty first century
Doesn't mean much to me
Because it's all way in the past

The time we spend
Goes 'round again
It feels the same
No it has not changed
Not for me
I can't deny
That I have cried
And lost my way
It has preserved my age
But not for you
Please give me a chance to find a memory inside my mind to take the pain away from me and set me free.
Maybe you can stick around, dear, and help me to remember why I chose to live this way.
I gave my life to the
Recess of time
I watched the ones I loved
Slowly dissolve
And not return
Some scientists
Are saying I exist
They say the same rules don't apply
That are keeping me alive

It's amazing to watch development
In things you can hardly see
Consider if you will a bowl of fruit
Infected by some disease
As circumstance has grown too high
A habitable zone in the sky
If a fruit gets reduced to destitute
And life forms cannot sustain
It is safe to assume a pilgrimage
Where life forms may start again
And it seems as if I'd seen this all before...
No I don't think I am the only one
Who see's similarities
As our planets revolve around the sun
They impact with small debris
Prevailing effects of temperature
Lead to extremities
Molecular social entities
Forming societies

Below the clouds in darkness
Inside primordial soup
When no one's watching
Life will begin a new
We've seen the signs of travel
That much we know is true
Where did we come from
That part is up to you
There's no denying life is just passing through
Expanding through the Cosmos
Sailing on solar winds
Infections thrive by moving from host to host
There's no denying life is just passing through
The truth is bound to scare you
This world is not our home
Where did we come from
That part is up to you

What was once will be again
if things go according to plan
As for me, you'll see
My pain as it is written in the sand
With the end in sight you left one night
With no looking behind
You may have changed your name
but you look the same in my eyes
What you'll find outside in space
The signs of the last human race
As we gaze into the stars
We see how life trans-permeates from mars
I know you think you know your side
And I know how much you love your pride
But please don't lose sight
Of what was a once luxurious life
You left me here with all the shame
But in the end it's all the same
"Let me not seem to have lived in vain."-Tycho Brahe
