Songtext zu '10:04 PM' von Tanagra

Between the deaths of a trillion suns
And the dawn of a trillion more
Between the Cambrian flood and fatal ebb
On a blue and wandering orb

A trillion souls bear witness
To a speck of dust in Time
And among the seas of consciousness
One traveler's weary mind

The One that Time forgot

My destiny precedes me
The effect precedes the cause
My very soul stands in defiance
Of Nature's sacred laws

I left that world a mortal man
With mortal hopes and fears
Then passed in but a heartbeat
Four thousand years

One thread pulled from the tapestry
Was destined to be mine
I am the wandering observer
Of countless grand designs

Somewhere out there
Someday amidst the nebulae
I will find whatever I must be searching for

An exodus of sentience across the cosmos
A thousand empires rise and fall
Infinite realities woven through the multiverse
And I have seen them all

The crushing weight of knowing on a cosmic scale
This is but the first page of the tale

Expansion and collapse
Premonitions of the end
With another oscillation
The stars are reborn once again

An exodus of sentience across the cosmos
A thousand empires rise and fall
Infinite realities woven through the multiverse
And I have seen them all

I lay my eyes level with the smallest of leaves
As the macrocosm dissolves
Now I see
The fourth dimension is me
None of this is real

It's all so damned insignificant
One more breath
And I'm gone

Vast oceans of stardust
Will be scarred by my hand

I can show you the edge of Forever

From without the finite boundaries of mortality
To the very edges of the universe and beyond
Throngs of the faithful to the undying light
Shall come to heed the words
Of the One that Time forgot
