I stood alone upon the highest cliff-top[00:00:00]

Looked down around and all that I could see[00:00:23]

Were those that I would dearly love to share with[00:00:27]

Crashing on quite blindly to the sea[00:00:30]

I tried to ask what game this was but knew I might not play it[00:00:35]

The voice as one as no-one came to me[00:00:42]

'We have looked upon the heroes and they are found wanting[00:01:05]

We have looked hard across the land but we can see no dawn[00:01:08]

We have now dared to sear the sky but we are still bleeding[00:01:12]

We are drawing near to the cliff now we can hear the call[00:01:16]

And the clouds are piled in mountain shapes[00:01:22]

There is no escape except to go forward[00:01:25]

Don't ask us for an answer now[00:01:35]

It's far too late to bow to that convention[00:01:39]

What course is there left but to die[00:01:51]

We have looked upon the high kings found them less than mortals[00:02:12]

Their names are dust before the just March of our young new law[00:02:16]

Minds surging strong we hurtle on into the dark portal[00:02:20]

No-one can halt our final vault into the unknown maw[00:02:24]

And as the elders beat their brows[00:02:29]

They know that it's really far too late now to stop us[00:02:33]

For if the sky is seeded death[00:02:43]

What is the point in catching breath -expel it[00:02:47]

What cause is there left but to die[00:02:58]

In search of something we're not quite sure of[00:03:03]

What cause is there left but to die[00:03:23]

What cause is there left but to die[00:03:26]

What cause is there left but to die[00:03:30]

I really don't know why[00:03:33]

I know our ends may be soon but why do you make them sooner[00:03:59]

Time may finally prove only the living move her and[00:04:06]

No life lies in the quicksand[00:04:14]

Yes I know it's[00:05:27]

Out of control out of control[00:05:27]

Greasy machinery slides on the rails[00:05:31]

Young minds and bodies on steel spokes impaled[00:05:35]

Cogs tearing bones cogs tearing bones[00:05:47]

Iron-throated monsters are forcing the screams[00:05:51]

Mind and machinery box-press the dreams[00:05:55]

But there still is time[00:06:26]

Cowards are they who run today the fight is beginning[00:07:35]

No war with knives fight with our lives lemmings can teach nothing[00:07:39]

Death offers no hope we must grope for the unknown answer[00:07:43]

Unite our blood abate the flood avert the disaster[00:07:47]

There's other ways than screaming in the mob[00:07:51]

That makes us merely cogs of hatred[00:07:57]

Look to the why and where we are[00:08:07]

Look to yourselves and the stars and in the end[00:08:10]

What choice is there left but to live[00:08:22]

In the hope of saving our children's children's little ones[00:08:33]

What choice is there left but to live[00:08:47]

What choice is there left but to live[00:08:49]

What choice is there left but to live to save the little ones[00:08:51]

What choice is there left but to try[00:09:02]

What choice is there left but to try[00:09:06]

What choice is there left but to try[00:09:10]
