Lyrics
[Verse 1]
From the first written page to the last,
Every moment slips into the past.
Yet the river won't cease –
It transforms without peace,
Changing forms as each instant is cast.
[Chorus]
This place gives us immersion
But why do we have to wait?
Longing for the next version
I just don't want to be late.
[Verse 2]
Was there ever a final last page?
Would the cosmos itself know old age?
No librarian knew,
Not the ancient nor new,
Nor the stars in their limitless cage.
[Chorus]
This place gives us immersion
How long do we have to wait?
Longing for the next version
I just don't want to be late.
[Verse 3]
Life itself was the universe spread,
With no certainty where it was led.
Does infinity end?
Can eternity bend?
None could answer what lay still ahead.
[Chorus]
This place gives us immersion
But why do we have to wait?
Longing for the next version
I just don't want to be late.
[Verse 4]
So you ask when this time shall appear,
When its presence will finally draw near.
But no clock marks that day,
Nor can prophets now say
When its doorway will suddenly clear.
[Chorus]
This place gives us immersion
But why do we have to wait?
Longing for the next version
I just don't want to be late.
[Verse 5]
So be patient, the dream softly said,
Do not race where no footsteps have tread.
For the book writes us too,
Even me, even you,
As we follow the path it has led.
[Chorus]
This place gives us immersion
But why do we have to wait?
Longing for the next version
I just don't want to be late.
[Verse 6]
Thus the tale has no ending to claim,
Though each reader departs all the same.
Close the cover if must,
Leave it gently to dust –
Tomorrow may open the same.
[Chorus]
This place gives us immersion
How long do we have to wait?
Longing for the next version
I just don't want to be late.
[Outro]
Uhhh-huhhh...
