-LYRICS-
« Within a period to be estimated by weeks and months rather than by æons,
there has been a fundamental change in the conditions under which life exists,
The end of everything we call life is close at hand and cannot be evaded
It is going clean out of existence, leaving not a wrack behind » H.G. WELLS
A time traveler hikes in the void
He left his life
He left his world
802,701
He felt in love
He found the one
She was a poor small creature
A young female from the future
But he lost her in the battle field
Whatever tried, her death is sealed
And then he cried from out of time
far from his victorian life
A time traveler lost in the night
He lost his faith
He lost the fight
802,701
He was so weak
He killed someone
This lone and poor time argonaut
tried to forget and hit the road
But the only hope to salvation:
to help people as vocation
And then he goes from time to time
to try to help the human kind
But all around, just crimes, just wars
and each time it's getting worse
Frightened by the misery
he came with a theory
whatever the future’s face
he can't save the human race
