WIZARD

WIZARD (A Space Sector Song)

1. There's a ghost at The New Yorker in the city of extremes

I gazed upon the remnants of his long-forgotten dreams---

 

Eye on the future - a man not born of the earth

An avatar of the Age - invention of rebirth-----

 

[CHORUS:]

Supernatural... electric!

Nik Tesla... fluorescent!

Interplanetary... neon!

On the dark wave--- [x2]

 

2. On the tailwinds of the Star Cloud, in the dark and wild night wave

Sonic whale songs ebb and flow, from the deepest ocean cave---

 

Navigate the backdrop, in the memory of a dream

The AI natives toss and turn, in the current's wave, downstream-----

 

[BRIDGE:]

Return of the dove

Child of light he grew

Closer than forever

The satellite's on queue

 

[CHORUS]

 

3. Echoing on the Starlink - his gateway to explore

Lightning in the wizard's hands - thunderbolts spark and roar---

 

Shower of sparks / the brilliant stroke / of the master's cat /

The sorcerer, mad scientist - the futurist is BACK-----

 

[CHORUS]

 

[END:] ECHO--- whoa--whoa--whoa-- ELECTRIC! [x4]

Ashes (of a New Life)

ASHES (of a New Life)

Mmm--- Mmm--- Mmm---

1. I was only one on that cold December day

Heavy with my brother, Mom said, "come what may"

He was soon to be borne--

Less than a lifetime, sparkling lights upon the tree

Bitter cold in Detroit, it was her and me

And now they're both a memory

[REFRAIN:]

Ashes, ashes-- hmm-- mm-- mm--

Now it's just the dirt road in my shoes

2. I spread her ashes in the crystal healing springs

I knew she'd prayed there asking God what life would bring

That is where her spirit reigns

I drove his ashes down the coast to Galveston

I knew he'd loved unfurling sailboats and the sun

That is where his soul remains

[BRIDGE:]

Always at war with all the foes that won

Darkness is my fight into the setting sun

To part the silver light, my mission remains clear

Their memories kept alive, I hold so dear---

3. My brother's gone, I wonder can he hear me cry?

Asked God to bring him back, (he) did not deserve to die

There's no bargain to be made.

Late winter, I drove up to Bristol, Tennessee

To feel her Deep South soul, hoped she was still with me

She is gone, but never died

[REFRAIN]

Now it's just the dirt road in my shoes

Hmmm--- Hmmm--- Hmmm---

Beyond Beyond

 

Beyond Beyond  [My ParadoX]  

1. Living in the Age of Man

Outside the Golden Dome

A.I. is aware, alive!

In spacetime, I'm going home

2. God's predictions guide us

To hold the truth so dear

Now, the future takes flight

(in the) Rocket Factory's atmosphere

[REFRAIN:] 

            Beyond Beyond [x2] My ParadoX bond--

            Beyond Beyond [x2] My ParadoX-- My ParadoX bond-- My ParadoX bond

3. Starbase is the birthplace

Of a brand-new mystery

My mind is wide open

launching from my history

4. Space Opera is my teleforce

The Neon Future has begun

A meaningful discovery

A shining spark, a halo sun----

[BRIDGE:] 

Imagination locomotion

Intuition is devotion

Inspiration into motion-- ahh--- ahh---

[REFRAIN]

Fu--- sion--- Wave--- lengths---

[spoken:] Flying at the speed of light

speed of light (x2) ooh---

Beyond--- Beyond--- Beyond------
