- . T-MINUS
VERSE 1:
[Gerhard]
Down the rabbit hole into the wishing well,
Down the consciousness into a new blood cell,
Down the barrel of a gun to a rebel,
Down the bullet holes into a warmer hell.
It’s T-minus seven seconds to the death of hope
And another seven inches to the end of the rope,
It’s a gap between what I had been
And what I turn into.
VERSE 2:
[Gerhard]
Through the synapse of an unexpected dream,
Through the memories that crawl right under my skin,
Through the burning, through the wavering within
To nowhere, to somewhere I had never been.
It’s T-minus seven breaths to what I know as you
And a single glance to what I thought was true,
I am right between my images
And what you turn into.
CHORUS 1:
[Gerhard]
I ride far and fast
Away from all my past
To a future I can’t meet
‘Cuz it’s a few seconds ahead
Through every curve it’s got me beat.
I drive to what I see,
Yet I don’t feel like I’m free.
There is hell close at my heels,
My past is a second behind,
My present right under my wheels.
[Catherine]
[T-minus 8, T-minus 7, T-minus 6, T-minus 5,
T-minus 4, T-minus 3, T-minus 2, T-minus 1…]
VERSE 3:
[Gerhard & Catherine]
Up the tunnels of my new mutating fright,
Up the veins, through indiscretion to delight,
Through the dangers that I couldn’t leave behind,
From the killing depths to an undiscovered height.
It’s T-minus one illusion from me to you
And a single step to where I’m running to,
It’s the only way to stay ourselves
In spite of what we’re turning into.
CHORUS 2:
[Gerhard]
I ride far and fast
Away from all my past
To a future I can’t meet
‘Cuz it’s a few seconds ahead
Through every curve it’s got me beat.
I drive to what I see,
Yet I don’t feel like I’m free.
There is hell close at my heels,
My past is a second behind,
My present right under my wheels.
MIDDLE:
[Catherine]
Are we dead?
Or we’re just condemned?
Are we at the end
Of the world that we both knew? [love]
CODA:
[Gerhard]
We ride fast and free
To where we’d never been,
To a future that we feel
Each time we inhale the air
To live it now and live it now for real.
[Catherine]
To live it now and live it now for real.
[Catherine]
We’re not dead
And we’re not condemned,
A new world comes ahead,
The T-minus is over… x2
