On the Road to Babylon
(Come on in the middle of the show Rain, rain, endless rain Advanced reality in global connection An endless storm) It's not easy to find a way, to find a way This sky darkens and closes day after day Like it's the end, like it's the end In the sound of rain When our mind is flying, when we fly away We draw our maps, looking for another way Beyond the borders of the world Beyond the mud and rain So weaving the flight of butterflies We cross the curved lines of time Like sparks that vanish As they go away to nowhere One by one we vanish We run and run in circles In search of ourselves One by one we vanish in the rain In the last cold gleams of the day we flex our heads Towards all that flows, towards all that ends Like fluctuating shadows in the lattice of time And even, even now, we are dancing again In our life that rushes by, that runs away Like sparks that vanish As they go away to nowhere One by one we vanish We run and run in circles In search of ourselves One by one we vanish in the rain It’s not easy to find a way, to find a way (To find a way) This sky darkens and closes day after day (Day after day) It’s not easy to find a way, to find a way (To find a way) This sky darkens and closes day after day (Day after day) In the sound of rain (In the sound of rain)

Like galaxies Like so many lost spaceships We’re moving away from our world From our life, from our way And we cruise around like drones Like mechanical dragonflies Under a sky that sinks lower Under a low and alien sky, under a low sky Come on, the time is over I deem that, in silence, trees will bloom again And forever, together, we’ll walk on the sky I deem that, in silence, trees will bloom again And forever, together, we’ll walk on the sky Dust clouds and swarms of viruses Hiding the horizon’s lines We can’t see the Achaeans Who sail for Troy But, we’re still at war, a global war Without heroes We’re still at war, a silent war Day by day Like galaxies Like so many lost spaceships We’re moving away from our world From our life, from our way Let’s get up from here, away from darkness Only mechanical dragonflies Under a low and alien sky Under a low sky Come on, the time is over I deem that, in silence, trees will bloom again And forever, together, we’ll walk on the sky I deem that, in silence, trees will bloom again And forever, together, we’ll walk on the sky I deem that, in silence, trees will bloom again And forever, together, we’ll walk on the sky I deem that, in silence, trees will bloom again And forever, together, we’ll walk on the sky

Yes, we need low entropy to ward off the end To control the system We look for low entropy source On the sun or on stars, on the moon or on Mars And we want to know about ourselves We wonder why we are in pain? Like suns and moons, like fallen angels And like the Gods themselves Why all this turn into dust? Why the silence, why the darkness? Why the darkness? Always looking for symmetry In asymmetric worlds We walk fast, faster and faster But we are still hеre And one night we will go away Whеn the crows they will call our name And one day we will go away When a old gypsy will reveal our destiny Following our visions Leaving open doors behind us That slam and close in the circle of time And we are still standing On the sides of a dusty railway Waiting for a train for the moon or for Mars We need low entropy We look for low entropy source On the sun or on stars On the moon or on Mars Always looking for symmetry In asymmetric worlds We walk fast, faster and faster But we are still here And one night we will go away When the crows they will call our name And one day we will go away When a old gypsy will reveal our destiny And one night we will go away When the crows they will call our name And one day we will go away When a old gypsy will reveal our destiny

I don’t see the phoenix rising I don’t see the flaming look of the sun Nothing in the East, nothing in the West, just nothing Flatlands directionless, smooth surfaces directionless Where shadows recede only to come back I don’t see the chariot of the clouds Wandering through the sky No wind rises to rescue us from here The heroes give way to silicon and graphene The warships going away in the global grey sea And we too, are going on routes already drawn Wherе real things dissolve like imagе sequences In the mists of time, in the mists of time In the mists of time, in the mists of time I don’t see the phoenix rising, I don’t see the sun Nothing in the East, nothing in the West, just nothing We have reached immortality And now we cling to dreams to leave To leave forever, this reality In the mists of time We have crossed the lines of the setting sun To reach immortality, to find eternity And now we cling to dreams to leave To leave forever, this reality We have crossed the lines of the setting sun To reach immortality, to find eternity Forgetting the beauty of streams flowing from the rocks They run and run and gleam then dissolve into sea Forgetting the cycle of seasons, forgetting the beauty of roses That bloom in an instant and in an instant wither In the mists of time, in the mists of time In the mists of time, in the mists of time I don’t see the phoenix rising I don’t see the flaming look of the sun Nothing in the East, nothing in the west, just nothing We have reached immortality And now we cling to dreams to leave To leave forever, this reality

Something blows on my restless wings And brings me back Sometimes I close my mind like a closed box My dreams in many frames floating in a case of glass Nothing can hurt me, nothing can touch me I can delete the time lines, the passing world And the principle of causality What will be my life? If my love passes like a stormy wave Wild and out of control When ruthless and cruel runs like a dance Then it stops and vanish What will be my life? I don’t know if, one day, we may meet again Like clouds meeting the wind beyond the sun and rain I don’t know if, one day, we may meet again Like clouds meeting the wind Beyond the sun and rain Beyond the gates of time, beyond the gates of time I don’t know, I don’t know This is my soul I walk on what is to come Or I can go back, like rain Fated to fall anywhere from the sky Simply I follow the sun’s cycle Reflecting the rays of light On the sadness, on the madness of the world What will be my life? If my love passes like a stormy wave Wild and out of control When ruthless and cruel runs like a dance Then it stops and vanish What will be my life? I don’t know if, one day, we may meet again Like clouds meeting the wind beyond the sun and rain Beyond the gates of time, beyond the gates of time Beyond the gates of time, beyond the gates of time This is my soul, I walk on what is to come Or I can go back, like rain Fated to fall anywhere from the sky Simply I follow the sun’s cycle Reflecting the rays of light On the sadness, on the madness of the world

Beyond the horizon Beyond all we can see Something draws the lines of destiny We are alone In the geometry of things Hanging from the clouds Only a hand waving free Now the winter is everywhere Shadows lengthen, turn into demons While the asymmetric flow of time Gives a beat to lifeless things We traverse Paths of knowledge We know nothing of us Only that we are here We are here Pile up and raise Stone by stone Forgetting the beauty of words Now it's time to rise To run fast in the wake of kings It's time to rise Stop floating in memories It's time to rise There must be other ways, there must be There must be other worlds, there must be It's time to rise Cling to the sun's rays Flat level sands Stretch far away Walking like shadows We search for what is lost We raise all things We later let fall down Always clinging To eventuality and hope But, the winter is everywhere Shadows lengthen, turn into demons Now it's time to rise To run fast in the wake of kings It's time to rise To run towards infinity It's time to rise It's time to rise Cling to the sun's rays Like waves in the ocean of time We fall and rise again Sailors lost in the ocean of time On every island we find new pain Like waves in the ocean of time We fall and rise again Sailors lost in the ocean of time On every island we find new pain Like waves in the ocean of time We fall and rise again Sailors lost in the ocean of time On every island we find new pain

I’d like to touch life hidden in folds of reality To walk on the fallen leaves, along the paths of time To dance like trees that bend to the wind On the brightest hour of day In the darkest hour of night To look into the folds of life, in the people’s hearts They can drag me down, they can switch off my sensors They can drag me down, they can reset my memory They can drag me down, this spark will rise again This spark will shine again It’s just a system error, like a crazy spark Appeared out of nowhere A tiny flickering light but stronger than the pain To live in another world, to live in another time To live in another world I don’t know what it means I don’t know what is this light that never sets Lights up as a hope, shines like a tear Lights up as a hope, shines like a tear They can drag me down, they can switch off my sensors They can drag me down, they can reset my memory They can drag me down, this spark will rise again They can drag me down, they can switch off my sensors They can drag me down, they can reset my memory They can drag me down, this spark will shine again They can drag me down, they can reset my memory This spark will shine again
