Spaced

(album: Get Your Wings - 1974)

spaced in time
child of nine
doing twenty years on the way
fire and steel
earth unreal
find another planet to stay
papa died
ma survived
telling me about her ordeal
and the soul she could not feel
'cause they made her so unreal
lightning years
disappears
twenty million years on my brain
synthesize
overrides
trying to keep from going insane
and my soul I can not feel
'cause they made me so unreal
spaced enough to know I feel there's nothing out there
spaced enough to know I feel I really don't care
spaced enough to feel I'm really losing my mind
and I'm never ever going back
I'm off the track
no one even knows I'm alive
spaced
without a trace
waiting for the word to arrive
I'm the last man to survive
