Maybe in a lifetime the ones like me will resurrect    My monument immortal but tarnished I suspect    That holds my generation's failures put song.    The jail house holding all our years undone    The passing of the time we killed when we were young    The archives of our blessed few and all that    They've done wrong or hadn't done at all       When the longing in our lives fades as light resigns    Away beneath the skyline, 'neath the cities    Our emptiness reads like a sign    With all the love between you and I       I'll mind my future as the sunlight trends to life    Though my divinity may tightrope the sharpest knife    Because I have none of what lies above    Beyond the stars and sky    Beyond the flight of dove      When the longing in our lives fades as light resigns    Away beneath the skyline, 'neath the cities    Our emptiness reads like a sign    With all the love between you and I
