A Spark In The Aether

"Time's not on our side!"
The demons cry inside our heads
We're past the half way line
The paint has lost its shine, it seems, instead

And though our backs are aching
Our dignity's been taken
We're not complaining
Searching for a spark in the aether

It seems for far too long
We've sung old songs to keep us young
But there's more than just one tune
Let's whistle up some new ones, fill our lungs!

Let's engineer a breakdown
Let's get lost on new ground
Tell our friends what we found
Searching for a spark in the aether

All of the barriers and fear of the fall
All of the limits don't matter at all
Taking the hard road, the wind in our hair
There's gold in the twilight if we tear ourselves...
... from the humdrum, from the old songs, from the past!
