Lyrics

[01:23.41] We left the earth in 1983
[01:27.11] Fingers groping for the galaxies
[01:30.55] Reddened eyes stared up into the void
[01:33.99] A thousand stars to be exploited
[01:37.61] Somebody help me, I'm falling
[01:41.21] Somebody help me, I'm falling down
[01:52.83] Into sky, into earth
[01:59.89] Into sky, into earth
[02:23.21] It is so dark around
[02:26.40] No life, no hope, no sound
[02:30.03] No chance of seeing home again
[02:53.97] The universe is on fire
[03:07.22] Exploding without flame
[03:34.06] We are the lost ones
[03:38.30] We are the pioneers
[03:42.62] We are the lost ones
[03:47.07] We are the ones they are going to build a statue for
[03:52.34] Ten centuries ago or were going to fifteen forward
[04:05.76] One last brief whisper in our loved ones' ears
[04:09.27] To reassure them and to pierce the fear
[04:12.32] Standing at controls then still unknown
[04:15.37] We told the world we were about to go
[04:18.92] Somebody help me I'm missing
[04:21.94] Somebody help me I'm missing now
[04:31.36] Touch with my mind, I have no frame
[04:36.95] Touch with my mind, I have no frame
[04:58.70] Well now where is the time?
[05:02.34] And who the hell am I?
[05:05.70] Here floating in an aimless way
[05:22.87] No one knows where we are
[05:36.24] Though they can't feel us precisely
[06:33.23] There is no fear here
[06:42.78] How could such a thing exist
[06:51.52] In this place where living and knowing
[07:01.75] And being have never been heard of?
[07:14.49] Have never been heard of
[09:27.11] Doomed to vanish in the flickering light
[09:30.50] Disappearing to a darker night
[09:34.15] Doomed to wander in a living death
[09:37.95] Living anti-matter, anti-breath
[09:41.27] Somebody help me, I'm losing
[09:44.81] Somebody help me, I'm losing now
[09:55.29] People around, no one to touch
[10:01.45] People around, no one to touch
[10:24.53] I am now quite alone
[10:28.37] Part of a vacant time-zone
[10:32.13] Here floating in the void
[10:55.38] Only dimly aware of existence
[11:09.16] A dimly existing awareness
[11:35.76] I am the lost one
[11:40.04] I am the one you fear
[11:44.34] I am the lost one
[11:48.88] I am the one who crossed through space
[11:52.74] Or stayed where I was
[11:56.03] Or didn't exist in the first place
