“THE 20TH CENTURY IS OVER”

In this time of change,

The end of the age.

Time to see the past dissolve.

All we know of,

All that we control,

All the structure goes away.

Like a candle,

Burning in the night,

Matter dissolves to light.

What was I to be?

Why did I study?

Where’s the world I once knew?

The 20th century is over,

Time to say goodbye.

The 20th century is over,

Time to liquify.

“TOUCH THE STARS”

There's a golden path we walk upon,

Trying to stay clean.

The future calls us onward,

Stretching out like widescreen.

We search for meaning everyday,

Cell phone glued to our ear.

And we call out for answers,

But it’s the phone machine we hear.

And we try to touch the stars,

As we journey in air conditioned cars.

And we watch the endless sea,

But we do it now on DVD.

There’s a golden rule we’re living by,

Trying to be free.

Our credit history haunts us,

Controlling what will (we’ll) be.

We search for contact everyday,

Emailing our thoughts away.

And we call out for answers,

But only the spammers find their way.

And we try to touch the stars,

As we journey in air conditioned cars.

And we watch the endless sea,

But we do it now on DVD.
