Burton Cummings – Cerebral World
CARS RUST, AND STARS GROW COLD AND DIE
MACHINES BREAK, AND HUMANS CEASE TO TRY
MOUNTAINS ERODE AND BUILDINGS COLLAPSE
AND I FALL PREY TO THE MANY TRAPS ALL AROUND ME
THEY CONFOUND ME
CEREBRAL WORLD, TRIUMPH OF THE WILL
I MUST FIGHT FOR PLUS SIGNS, OVERCOME THE KILL
CEREBRAL WORLD, VILLAGE OF THE MIND
I MUST SEARCH FOR NEW CLUES
FOR MY SPACE IN TIME
NO GRASP, NO SYMMETRY, NO RHYME
PRISON, POINT IN HUMAN TIME
ORDER RIDES THE RUMOUR DOWN
ENTROPY WILL CHASE THE CROWN ALL AROUND ME
IT CAN HOUND ME
CEREBRAL WORLD, TRIUMPH OF THE WILL
I MUST SEARCH FOR NEW CLUES, OVERCOME THE KILL
CEREBRAL WORLD, VILLAGE OF THE MIND
I MUST CROSS A NEW PATH
FOR MY SPACE IN TIME
WONDER IS WHAT I BEST CAN DO
KNOWING ELUDES BOTH ME AND YOU
IF IT’S LIKE A WATCH WOUND TIGHT
I MUST SET MY RECORDS RIGHT
AS TO HOW IT GOT WOUND, JUST TO RUN DOWN
CEREBRAL WORLD, TRIUMPH OF THE WILL
I MUST FIGHT FOR PLUS SIGNS, OVERCOME THE KILL
CEREBRAL WORLD, VILLAGE OF THE MIND
I MUST PAY THE PIPER FOR MY SPACE IN TIME…
