Beyond Electric Dreams

(Here we go now)

No one here can show you where it is but I can point to a sign
On the roof of the world without apparent design
The frozen definition of a lunatic ambition to rise

(The air is thin, the future dim, dimension hard to find)

Up on a mountain
Encased in solar rays
Beyond Electric Dreams
Of inarticulate passion plays

Coming down a mountain
Eons have a human ring
The conversation of impassive planets
Intercepted by a human being

Ratiocination is a practicable way to derive
An attitude of altitude and probity by which to abide
Or maybe a theophany of flaming creosote in disguise

(The air is thin, the future dim, dimension undefined)

Up on a mountain
Encased in solar rays
Beyond Electric Dreams
Of inarticulate passion plays

Coming down a mountain
Eons have a human ring
The conversation of impassive planets
Intercepted by a human being

(Here glaring cold in the crystalline geometry of night)
(Obscuring form and tracing faceless fears of suprahuman immensity)
(In a patch of sand or a raptors guileless shivering intensity)
(I'm only a visitor)
(An atom of atoms, on a jutting)
(Red spattered synagogue of granite)
(As it crouches, literally, in space)

A frozen amoral giant

Gazing heavenward forever (Hello?!)
(Hello?! Hello?! Hello?!)

Let's go where the raptor goes
To the mountain in a cosmic glow
We'll have a genuine terrestrial show
On a mountain, on a mountain

Let's scan the horizon clean
For any trace of a human schemes
And try to touch upon immortal themes
On a mountain, on a mountain

(Up on a mountain) Let's go where the raptor goes

(Intercepted by a human being) On a mountain, on a mountain

On a mountain, on a mountain
