I know a time called then

When we were only men

And to be alive

Just meant you hadn't died

Time can't erase

Heartbeats

Out of phase

And your empty eyes

Don't seem to want to realise



Oh! 2025

When we were still alive

Oh! 2025

When we were only simple men



And in the automat

!!! [sound effect]

And that was that

We didn't mess with time

Knock things out of line



Oh! 2025

When we were still alive

Oh! 2025

When we were only simple men



And in the dreamless night

I pulse

Out of sight

Am I the only man

No part of any plan



Before the age of clean

Before the power screen

Before the maser beam

Before my world was only me



Oh we were young and free

You can't alter me

So now you keep me here

Is this law

Or is it fear



Oh! 2025

When we were still alive

Oh! 2025

When we were only simple men
