Well, it must have been here somewhere, | |
that which the culture highly prized: | |
the list of ancient buildings, | |
the attitude of mind, | |
the wisdom of the prophets, | |
the catalogue of books... | |
You can't get off it, | |
you don't know where to look, | |
you don't know where to look. | |
I know you don't know what to say | |
and it's strange now, see how | |
everything's changed, | |
including the Seven Wonders. | |
Nothing is permanent here. | |
New kick, new game, new theory, | |
the rest reduced to nought: | |
it only takes a moment, | |
one clear and lucid thought. | |
Once the process has been triggered | |
all previous process disappears... | |
I don't know what it is you fear, | |
I don't know what it is you fear – | |
the shift is nothing to be afraid of. | |
Strange now, see how | |
everything's changed, | |
including the Seven Wonders. | |
Nothing is permanent here, | |
that's part of the spell we're under. | |
Getting old then, say when | |
you're happy to hold | |
your personal Seven Wonders. | |
Nothing is permanent here. |
