Hope For The Future

(music: marillion lyrics: john helmer)



I've been feeling kind of down and loose

Like a rosicrucian pope

Head down deep in the womb of time

Carrying a message of hope

My hands steady as a hangman's hands

Surer than the hangman's rope

I could sleep for invisible years

Carrying a message of hope

For the future

For the future



Carrying a message

Carrying a message

Carrying a message

Message of hope



I've been feeling kind of down and loose

Like a rosicrucian pope

Head down deep in the womb of time

Carrying a message of hope

My hands steady as a hangman's hands

Surer than the hangman's rope

I could sleep for invisible years

Carrying a message of hope

For the future

For the future



I found a power on a dusty shelf

Hey!-the languages i learned

Now i'm so powerful i hurt myself

I hurt myself

I feel kind of limbie brain

Like the library of an astronaut

Found hidden in a pyramid

Shadowing a body of thought



Carrying a message

Message of hope



Madam i'm adam, i'm a palindrome

Never odd or even any time

Fishin and smilin like a garden gnome

Twisting tales and spinning lines



Spinning lines

Twisting tales

Why don't we twist like we did last year?



Carrying, carrying a message

Message of hope
