Influenced by eloquent discourse
Deceived by the certainty of victory
We walk the path to our empire's demise
The ultimate end to endless desire
A hero jumps out, out of the CRT
Earth is an artifact, out of place in time, a ten billion year dream
Hey, it's still not too late
Someone listen to me; all I want is to live
Young men, swept up, surrounded by skyscrapers
Computers, fluorеscent lights, 1 in the morning
They’rе all paranoid, their voices left unheard
Hey, it's not too late
Someone listen to me; all I want is to live
The clock keeps ticking, ticking…
Are we going to escape to some other planet?
The clock keeps ticking, ticking…
Are we going to escape to some other planet?
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Are we abandoning this planet?
Surrounded by so many disks
I recorded the best moments of my life
My own empire, a dream of less than a hundred years
And even though everything's been decided from the start
Someone, listen. I can see it now
The clock keeps ticking, ticking…
Are we going to escape to some other planet?
Hey, it's not too late
Someone listen to me; all I want is to live
The future ticks, ticks closer…
Will we run away to some other planet?
