Threshold

Critical Mass

Threshold


(Part One: fission)

Atom by atom gaining a few 
Collapsing and waxing and building anew 
Eleven dimensions curled up so tight 
Time and space one thing the speed limit light 

Neutron and proton collapsing afresh 
More complex carbons creating the flesh 
Super string membranes dark matter burst 
Pulling together our universe 

Strange, charm and gluons imploding again 
All of this matter formed into men 

Energy everywhere and no drop to drink 
Each generation a chain in the link 
Science has helped us in getting this far 
The road has run out so get out of the car 

We're approaching the critical mass 

What will become of the spirit of man? 
What is the story and how does it end? 
Where are the boundaries and where are the doors? 
Who are the heroes for fighting this war? 

How did I meet you and why have we spent 
Our lives together, why were we sent? 
I know that I've lived with you twelve times before 
We're growing together, but what is it for? 

We're approaching the critical mass 

What will become of the spirit of man? 
What is the story and how does it end? 
Where are the boundaries and where are the doors? 
Who are the heroes for fighting this war? 

This means war

(Part Three: Lucky)

I've only just found it 
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do 
I've only just found it 
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do 

I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky 
I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky 

I was dead I was alive 
I've been everyone in this life 
I was alive I was dead 
I've heard everything ever said 

But... 
I've only just found it 
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do 
I've only just found it 
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do 

I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky 
I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky 

I was awake I was asleep 
I never had anything that I could keep 
I was asleep I was awake 
I never broke anything I couldn't make 

But... 
I've only just found it 
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do
