Methuselah's Children

Lyrics

Hello beautiful May
 the sun is here to stay
 It is good to be here on such a day
 Every day I turn a bit wiser
 every day climbing a little higher
 And every day I turn more into someone I admire
 Walking on light as the wind
 don't need to be slim to fit in
 As the fountain of youth disappeared with the fruit
 so the gardens closed, but it's easy to get in
 Some people try to touch the stars
 Plastic fantastic such a farce
 While the universe expands to be untouched by human hands
 Immortality can't be bought or can it really?
 Another day at the races, we try to stay ahead
 of the future that changes us, but we're all mislead
 Or values are wrong, we think we can live forever
 but we won't be here that long
 I don't care anyway
 gone tomorrow but still here today
 There are so many ways for the soul to find its home
 I guess it's all in beliefs
 It's God, it's Kharma, it is you and it is me
 And all of these flavours make a believer out of me
 Here I am doing fine
 working my way outside the grand design
 Won't line up like a barcode, this life is mine
 I'll guess that what lies in the future will come to me in time
 Methuselah's children, all Gods in this playground
 souls are being a part of the emotional wasteland
 Equal like seeds it's the year of the great flood
 Wash away the dirt and the blood from our fingers
 Only one solution be apart of their religion
 find ourselves drowning in the ego of the many
 Only one solution be apart of their religion
 find ourselves drowning in the ego of the many-
 we can't swim
 Look at the those people they're moving in circles
 collides at the edge of each turn
 Look at those people I really believe
 that their map is all wrong
 "I was a star of a show long ago
 do you know who I am, do you reminisce my face?"
 "I was a cog in a wheel 'twas a square
 I was aiming at the moon, but I landed in your living room"
 Look at those people their circle is stretched
 into one fragile lemming like line
 Look at those people I cannot believe
 that we're letting them drown
 Media creates an illusion of company
 but we will always be alone
 Empires rise and they fall during lunchtime
 but this world is all that I have...
 Look at those people
 Utopia waits for the blessed
 And the rest of us trying to cling
 to the beauty that's left in the world
 Stand up and be counted once more
 They're dividing the rich and the poor
 It will never be quite like the life you lived before
 Let them be nine hundred years
 evolution halts no-one cares
 When we'll draw our last breath and they're all cheating death
 Guess who's free?
 When the tables have turned
 The viewpoint is new I stand at the peak
 My dreams have come true There is no enough
 More is what moves me now and this mirror needs a change
 We're all Methuselah's children (Farewell beautiful May)
 We wander the streets alone (I don't care anyway)
 We watch as the world turns cold (Farewell beautiful May)
 The toys we collect are fools gold (I don't care anyway)
 And that's the price we pay
 Slowly consumed by a dream I resent,
 future I could prevent if I only'd understand
 But I assume that as long as we're here
 we just won't really care
 Acting out the stupid nature of man...
