"There is no god, or love, just time / Saying "Do what you will. Nothings real today" / We are fleeting numbers, and images / Like the liquid crystal digital readout / Floating on the sea of grey."
"One of these days Ill find a way / Ill rise above the throng / Theyll be amazed at what they see / One of these days someone will say / I knew it all along / One of these days, thats what will be"
"In one week Ill be thirty. Three-zero. Older than my Dad was when I was born. Older than Napoleon was when he ... did something that was probably extremely impressive at the time – Im not a historian. Im a composer. Sorry, a "promising young composer." I should have kids of my own by now, a career, but instead Ive been "promising" for so long Im afraid Im starting to break the fucking promise."
"Break of day, the dawn is here / Johnnys up and pacing / Compromise or persevere? / His mind is racing / Johnny has no guide / Johnny wants to hide / Can he make his mark, if he gives up his spark? / Johnny cant decide"
