The Last Of His Kind

(Album: Dynamind - 2019)

Did you hear me, did anything change?
We did continue and further estrange
And follow the crowd to go down the pan
Then pray for the time, when it all began

Do we listen, while the going is good?
We find ways and means, but not those we should
A self-given right, the head held high
In the face of reason we fly

We all lost our bearings
Never suit the action to the word and smile
And think we are immortal
But only we are rank and file

Time, time and again
Appallingly high
We hang on you out to dry
Why we're holding on?
Only to find
He is the last of his kind

The alienation, a devious way
No cause for alarm, 'cause later we pay
We choose and we change, cash in on the wild
We go round in circles, perfectly styled

We believe we get off lightly
And refuse we're riding for a fall
But our days are numbered
How on earth we missed the final call?

Time, time and again
Appallingly high
We hang on you out to dry
Why we're holding on?
Only to find
He is the last of his kind

We've forgone the chance
Moving on in trance
Holier than thou
We want it now
We need it, to feed it
'Cause it is money for old rope

We are here, undying
Or at least believe
Creation's crowning glory
Us we still deceive

A pearl of great price
We came to melt the ice
Into a vale of tears
Where the ghostship steers
We need it, to feed it
'Cause it is money for old rope

We are here, undying
Or at least believe
Creation's crowning glory
Us we still deceive

Time, time and again
Appallingly high
We hang on you out to dry
Why we're holding on?
Only to find
He is the last of his kind

We put off the evil hour
Remain in our ivory tower
We were thrown out of gear
And still live in abject fear
Facing the music one day
To our dismay

We are the stowaway
On ship of fools aside the bay
Not aware we are up the creek
We blot out what is unique
Perception of reality
The moment you see me

Oasis of light
A planet of grace
Where powers unite
Will be our place
