Dawn comes and you're up

You drink a fast cup

Don't keep them waiting

all systems are go

far down below

morning is breaking

and you're ready

you know the routine

you suit up and you board your machine

as all over the world

eyes are glued to the video screens

there's a holw in the clouds

when you look up tonight

a window that beckons you

toward the moonlight

the tower counts down

and the moment is right

you take a deep breath

but your chest still goes tight

alone at the top of the world

day turns into night

turns back to day

twice on the hour

you're far from it now

light years away

thin streams of power

rumbling under your feet

eagle leaps from the concrete

and the lines fly away

as the pad crumbles under the heat

there's a hole in the clouds...



Armageddon



There's and edge to the wind

Cutting into my skin

and the air's like an icicle

as the night starts to fall

and there's no one around

my ears strain for a sound

as I search through these canyons

so cold and so tall

armageddon

Oh, no

armageddon

came too soon

in this city so proud

full of noises and crowds

this once was a monument

now it's a grave

and they warned usabout

when reason gave out

now it's too late for miracles

there's nothing to save

armageddon

armageddon

came too soon
