Primitive Future

(album: Beneath The Remains - 1989)

I follow the steps in front of me
They are deep and well-defined
They show an undefined but straight path
What has been will never return

Future won't let me look back
I just walk, I don't evolve, I just walk
Animals run by my side
They communicate, each one in its own way
But I can't understand
I feel alone on this irrational planet
To create or just observe
I keep walking on this desert made of ideas
Primitive future

My head is heavy but empty
Everything around me is void
Without movement, without perspective
The night invades the sky
That darkness, the dry ground
Makes shadow join the big stain that's forming
Steps on skulls of generations
And harbored eyes

I hear painful cries of wars that are to come
To create everything again, from the beginning
To teach new minds
To awake a sleeping giant buried
On the ashes of disgrace

It's sinful the way I live
I look well, I think I'm well
That's all...

I follow the steps I see in front of me
They are deep and well-defined
They show an undefined but straight path
What has gone through me will never return
Primitive future
