In the Future
In the Future when I die
The fish’ll turn to birds, and then they’ll move into the sky
And the birds
The birds will turn to
Creatures, of the sea
In the Future
In the Future to us dark
Down there in the opalesce mysteries of the heart
The stones
Black stones, floating on the water
As lightyears pass the earth moves slower
T wo lifeless birds
Washed out to sea
This is you and me
This is you and me
Noone follows
There ain’t nobody here
We’re all alone
Here in the black water
The Earth
The Earth slows down
All splits apart, and I float face down
And we move
Slowly crawling to the shore
See Mephisto, in his surgical gown
Two lifeless birds
Washed out to sea
This is you and me
This is you and me
Noone follows
There ain’t nobody here
We’re all alone
Here in the black water
