Strange Advance

Nor Crystal Tears

Strange Advance


Watch the shadows fall on the neon plain
Sunset on the empire far away
You're a man in a uniform
Lonely outpost, never home
Where are you?

But your only friend is by your side
Understands with a multi-facet eye
Antennae wave with a solemn grace
Brothers, flesh and carapace
Who are you?

When all is said and done
What is there to fear?
Neither pain nor words of war
Nor crystal tears

When all is said and done
What will keep you here?
Neither pain nor words of love
Nor crystal tears

So you live in a soft eternal way
Tracing years, different worlds no longer strange
You grow older feel deeper blue
Like his armour he feels it too
Who are you?
