about

written by me on May 11, 1997. Inspired by one of my favorite albums, "Shinkai" by Mr.Children, and Arthur C. Clarke's 2001 books.

lyrics

A million miles from home I cry encased in steel and glass
Faster and faster I fly
A solitary emissary from a little blue globe
Eternal midnight, eternal horizon filled
Out there beyond the veil: a quest for the beginning
And a quest for the end
Flickering white daggers across a screen of static
Pictures fade and blur
Color and light
Solitary flight
Home

Take me to heaven and give me your love
Take me to heaven and bring me your love

I am the first and last traveller
And I am nothing
I am the beginning and end of mankind
I saw everything and witnessed nothing
I am the keeper of all wisdom and truth
And I am a fool

And flights of angels sing me to my rest

Take me to heaven and bring me your love
Take me to heaven and give me your love
