Now tell me... the last thing you remember"

I remember dying
Shifting into black
I remember dreaming
Of a second chance

Worn out by fighting
The unrelenting pain
End my weary longing
For a different fate

Defenses down
I glide into the New Real
Awaking to another world

What awaits me out here
In this foreign place
Will this world accept me?
Will I find my space?

Defenses down
I glide into the New Real
Awaking to another world

I lost my ground
Conforming to the New Real
Connecting to a different world

Why create more music if it was all done before?
Computer generated noise in millions of gigs(?)
Of all kinds and all formats
Imagine 7D+
Flash your ID, pick your heart's desire
Click it. Keep it.
It's auto-drived pre-shock ???


Every song's been sung before
Every note's been played
Every chord's been strung before
And every melody's been made

They heard it all by now
Nothing left to be inspired by
It all seems so unreal somehow
As I sit back I close my eyes

I just think of what I like
Any blend will do
They reproduced what's in my mind
But it feels like something new

Ref.:
Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin
Same old sound in the song(?)
Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin
Sounds so right, feels so wrong

Every tune's been hung before
Every album's been produced
Every rhyme's been applied before
And every music style has fused

I just think of what I like
Any blend will do
They reproduced what's in my mind
But it feels like something new

Ref.: [2x]
Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin
Same old sound in the song(?)
Pink beatles in a purple zeppelin
Sounds so right, feels so wrong
				

"The WE Earth program holds 2 billion of the human species. Not counting illegal slaves or temporary aliens. The poor and sick will just be written off. Human population is to be reduced to a much safer level. A 7-step evolution program has been implemented. Four steps down, three to go..."

Our world was choking, no air to breathe
Our numbers growing at alarming speed

Millions were starving, dying of thirst
So the system started controlling birth

The heat was searing, the rivers dry
Stars disappearing in a toxic sky

Mass unemployment, substance abuse
Could be avoided, or at least reduced

If you want to create a life
You've got to be qualified
Now you need to earn it

If you want to propagate
First prove you can educate
Parental Procreation Permit

No more war and destruction
No more climate disruption
No more crime and pollution
Now we've got the solution

Parental Procreation Permit

The streets were jammed.
the roads were blocked
The prisons crammed, the borders locked

Eco-degradation, pollution and disease
Crippled our nation, poisoned our seas

Are you sure you can raise a kid?
Have you got what it takes?
Are you sure you can pay for it?
There's no room for mistakes!
Are you sure, can you take the risk?
Protect and keep it safe?
Are you sure, I am not convinced!
PARENTAL PROCREATION PERMIT!
				

“Modern science has extended human life. But is longevity what you really want? Be careful what you wish for... Come on… face the music!"

Will I still be active, passionate and full of life?
Or will I feel redundant,
Yearning for the day I’ll die…

Will I still be relevant, or will I be ignored?
Never thought I’d wonder
What the future has in store…
When I’m a hundred sixty-four

Where will I be living, marble palace
or dirt floor?
When will I get my pension,
I wouldn’t want to work no more…
When I’m a hundred sixty-four

Will I turn grey, or sport a toupee?
Or even care anymore…
At a hundred sixty-four

I hope I’ll still be noticed.
Turning heads like before
Will I be cool or nerdy,
up-to-date or dinosaur
When I’m a hundred sixty-four

Will I be lazy, stuck in my chair
It all seems so crazy, guess I won’t care
anymore…at a hundred sixty-four
I might just be bored…
at a hundred sixty-four

I’ll stay with you
If that’s okay…

Don’t shut me down

"Despite hi-tech discovery, men still fight wars and mankind still fights nature. Lett me tell you about big mama. Our only mama. Mama Nature.“

The earth seemed asleep
As if time had been paused
A silence so deep
Even birds stopped their song

The wind had died down
The air became close
When from under the ground
Nature’s fury arose

Then out of the blue
The world started to shake
There was nothing to do
No way out, no escape

The earth belched out fire
Erupting in rage
Ashes darkened the skies
Thousands died in the flames

Man will always remember
Death and fire fell like rain
Changing history forever
The quake to end all quakes

Yellowstone Memorial Day
Lest we never forget
Our planet’s a cruel place
We are living… on the edge

Shockwaves circled the earth
Massive waves crushed the shores
All the world felt the burst
The unstoppable force

Our technology failed
To avoid this event
Mother nature prevailed
And she’ll do it again!

[Dr. Voight-Kampff]
Just a few ancient questions left, Mr. L
What the hell is real?
Who am I and why not...
Why don't we smell the roses anymore?
When do we get another shot?
Truly, madly, magic seven (?) and from sand to dust and dust to earth
momma... yours (Voight-Kampff)


Drifting
In a world I don't belong
My (?)
How can I face this life alone?

I do remember
Like it was yesterday
You and me together
Back in the different age

Reaching
For the ghosts haunting my mind
Dreaming
Of the ones I left behind
Hopeless
There is nothing I can do
Knowing
I can live only with you

I do remember
Like it was yesterday
You and me together
Back in the different age


Why did you bring me back?
(Like a lab rat in a maze)
Am I dead or alive?
(What's all these (?) stuck in my brain)
Why did you wake me up?
(???)
Why was I revived?
(Is this all some game?)

(Lost in this maze)

So this is the end
(Why did you bring me back?)
(Like a lab rat in a maze)
Or maybe a start
(Am I dead or alive?)
(With all these (?) stuck in my brain)
Someone help him stand
(Why did you wake me up?)
(Locked in this virtual game)
Can't find the way out
(Why was I revived?)
Is this all some game?


I could decide to stay here and dream on forevermore
To live without the danger and the fear I felt before
A life of devout of sadness, no more suffering and pain
In a realm of made belief within the limits of my brain

But can I really fool myself?
(Could I (?) this lucid dream)
Into believeing I'm still me
(In this mind-machine technology)
A synthetic state of consciousness
(Could I be a part of history?)
I am therefore I think
(Could I dream forevermore?)
(Without the fear I felt before)
(There'll be no suffering and pain)
(???)
Withing the comforts of my brain


I remember dying
Fading into black
I remember dreaming
I was (?)

A new real; A paradise
(Fighting and (?) - a new home)
A new real; A world of lies
(Confusion, delusion)
I am alone

A new real; A broken dream
(Serenity, destiny - a new home)
A new real; A cold machine
(Mistaken, Forsaken)
I am alone


Please swith me off
I am sure now
I don't belong
In this new real

Please shut me down
I am fine now
Thanks for the dream
You can switch me off

Now I know this is not real
I can't trust the way I feel
I'm alive but in a dream
Am I only a machine? 
				

In their ongoing search for extraterrestrial intelligence, SETI finally has detected a signal that could be some sort of binary code. Is it an alien life form trying to contact us, or just a freak coincidence?

Could there be other life
In this boundless universe
Would they live just like us
On a planet like the Earth

How would they see us?
Our imperfect race...
What would they think of us?
The mess we have made...
Or are we doing okay?

Could it be we're not unique
In the vastness of space
Do they know we are here
Are they heading out our way?

Would they condemn us?
Our imperfect race...
Maybe they'd pity us?
A breed doomed to fail...
Or are we doing okay?

Could it be we're here alone
A tiny sparkle of life
Could it be this is it
A fleeting moment in time

Maybe there's only...
Our imperfect race
No one will ever know
And nothing will change...
				

Pink Floyd's song

Welcome my son 
welcome to the machine
Where have you been? 
It's alright we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time
provided with toys and Scouting for Boys
You bought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn't like school
and you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome to the machine

Welcome my son
welcome to the machine
What did you dream? 
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
he played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine.
				

Scientists have succeeded in creating organic life, which has raised some serious theological issues. Additionally, the rise of super-intelligent, "godlike" machines makes the existence of a sentient entity -- capable of creating a universe -- quite plausible...

"There is no god"
I heard them say
No hell or heaven, no need to pray
So is there no God?

There is no plan
No grande design
A great enigma, but not divine
So is there no plan?
Is there no God?

Could it be life is a dream?
My private fantasy, created just by me
Or could it be some scheme?
A giant master plan,
that spiraled out of hand

There is no truth
We don't understand
This dance of nature, this game of chance
Is there no truth?
Is there no God?

Could it be we are all alone
A tiny blip in space, an isolated case
So much is still unknown
The more that we reveal,
the more it seems unreal

Is it a mere contingency?
A turn of the cards, a roll of the dice
Designed by destiny?
A lie within the truth, a truth within the lie.
				

Blue Oyster Cult's song

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I've
been living on the edge so long
Where the winds of limbo roar
And I'm
young enough to look at
And far too old to see
All the scars are on the
inside
I'm not sure if there's anything left of me

Don't let these
shakes go on
It's time we had a break from it
It's time we had some
leave
We've been living in the flames
We've been eating up our
brains
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on

You ask me why I'm
weary, why I can't speak to you
You blame me for my silence
Say it's time
I changed and grew
But the war's still going on dear
And there's no end
that I know
And I can't say if we're ever...
I can't say if we're ever
gonna to be free

Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had a break
from it
It's time we had some leave
We've been living in the
flames
We've been eating out our brains
Oh, please don't let these shakes
go on

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
My energy's
spent at last
And my armor is destroyed
I have used up all my weapons and
I'm helpless and bereaved
Wounds are all I'm made of
Did I hear you say
that this is victory?

Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had a
break from it
Send me to the rear
Where the tides of madness swell
And
been sliding into hell
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on
Don't let
these shakes go on
Don't let these shakes go on 
				

Using brain-computer interface technology, people in the New Real can connect with each other within their own private virutal worlds.

I might just stay at home again
Hanging out with virtual friends
Let's meet up in 3D space
Waste some time playing pointless games

(you are on your own)
We don't have to talk anymore
(but never quite alone)
This idle chatter...it's such a bore
(feeling right at home)
Don't even need to know your name
(your own comfort zone)
I won't remember it anyway...

Coz in this virtual realm of my imagination
I make friends without obligations
I live like a social recluse
In the comfort of my own mind

I thrive on isolation
but you're welcome to my simulation
call me a social recluse
but i never felt more alive

We're all connected in this virtual life
there are no boundaries once inside
no need to travel or see anyone
No need to touch or feel anything

(you are on your own)
i never liked to socialize
(but never quite alone)
It's not my nature to compromise
(feeling right at home)
if I don't trust you, i turn you off
(your own comfort zone)
and pull the plug once I had enough

I'm living a life without complications
Avoiding all close relations
I'm glad I'm a social recluse
All I want, I've got here inside

I hook up to this new application
Tap into the latest sensation
call me a social recluse
but this is all I need in my life.
				

Led Zeppelin's song

The Queen of Light took her bow
And then she turned to go,
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom
And walked the night alo__ne.
Oooh dance in the dark of ni__ght,
Sing to the mor__ning light.
The Dark Lord rides in force tonight
And time will tell us a__ll.
Ohhh throw down your plow and hoe,
Rest not to lock your homes.
As side by side we wait the might
Of the darkest of them all__.   Ohhh__.

I hear the horses thunder
Down in the valley below.
I'm waitin' for the angels of Avalon,
Waitin' for the eastern glow.

The apples of the valley ho__ld,
The seeds of happiness.
The ground is rich from tender care,
Repay, do not forget.
Ohhh   No, no!   dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.
The apples turn to brown and black,
The tyrant's face is re__d.
Oooh   Hohh now!   war is the common cry,
Pick up your swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad
That mortals never kno__w.   Ohhh__.   No__w.

Oh well, the night is long,
The beads of time pass slow.
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waitin' for the eastern glow.

The pain of war cannot exceed
The woe of aftermath.
The drums will shake the castle wall,
The ring wraiths ride in black. Ride on.
Ohhh Sing as you raise your bow,   Ride on.
Shoot straighter than befo__re__
No comfort has the fire that night
That lights the face so cold.
__ohhh dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning li__ght.
The magic runes are writ in gold
To bring the balance back. Bring it back.

At last the sun is shinin',
The clouds of blue roll by.
A-with flames from the dragon of darkness,
The sunlight blinds his eye__s.   eye__s.

Ah-ah-oh.   Oooh-ooh~ooh.
Ahhh___.   Oooh__.

Bring it back.    Bring it back.
A-bring it back. Bring it back.
Bring it back.    Bring it back.
Bring it back.    Bring it back.

Oh now, oh now, oh now ahh.
Oh now, oh now, oh now.
Bring it back. Bring it back.
Bring it back. A-bring it back.

Whoah now, oh now, oh now ohh.
Whoah now, oh now, oh now.
Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it,
               bring it, bring it, bring it,
               bring it, bring it, bring it,
               bring it, bring~ahhh__.
				

Plans for space tourism were already in the works by twenty-first century. Technology in the New Real has made the dream part of everyday life.

There's nothing like a weekend getaway in space!

It's 6 am, we're about to leave
My heart is racing as I take my seat.
What a feeling, so unreal, a cosmic holiday.
Still can't believe it, the final frontier,
a journey into Space.

The hatches close, everyone's aboard.
The engine's churning, we're taking off.
It has started,there's no way back
now we're on our way
We have departed into the black,
a journey into Space.
We're on a cosmic holiday

From the hotel lounge, we admire the Earth
The seas and clouds, our amazing world
In zero G you can loose yourself
Floating free in the Space Hotel.

Making love, in zero gravity
Will outspace your wildest fantasy
What a feeling, so unreal, a cosmic holiday
Still can't believe it, the final frontier,
making out in space

See the sun arise fifteen times a day,
The crystal shine of the milky way
We're spinning around and raising Hell
Hanging out in the Space Hotel.

From the hotel lounge we admire the Earth
The seas and clouds, our amazing world
In zero G you can loose yourself
Floating free in the Space Hotel.

Flying up to the bar, doing somersaults
Playing guitar, bouncing off the walls
We're spinning around, and raising Hell
Hanging out in the Space Hotel
				

Alan Parson project's song

In a matter of a moment
Lost till the end of time
It's the evening of another day
And the end of mine

Now the starlight which has found me
Lost for a million years
Tries to linger as it fills my eyes
Till it disappears

Could it be that somebody else is
Looking into my mind

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

Like a mirror held before me
Large as the sky is wide
And the image is reflected
Back to the other side

Could it be that somebody else is
Looking into my mind

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time
				

While virtual reality permeates the New Real culture, many are still drawn to experiences in physical reality. So a large island was restored to its natural state, and populated with several extinct species brought back to life. But can people still cope without the comforts of modern technology at their beck and call?

Welcome to Sanctuary Island
Leave your possessions at the gate
Rejoin the struggle for survival
A new life begins today

No machines, no computers
No TV, not even phones
No factories, industrial polluters
You have entered the reality zone

Out here on Sanctuary Island
You're but a shackle in the chain
You play your part in nature's cycle
This is the Old Real, not a game

Awoken by the silence
Hiding from the cold
Warming by the fire
Captivated by its glow

Mastodons on the horizon
Pandas curl up in the trees
The mighty roar of the tiger
Dolphins circle through the seas
				

Frank Zappa's song

I am gross and perverted
I'm obsessed 'n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I'm the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious
But you can't look away
I make you think I'm delicious
With the stuff that I say
I'm the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I'm the slime oozin' out
From your TV set

You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don't need you
Don't go for help . . . no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold

That's right, folks . . .
Don't touch that dial

Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin' along on your livin' room floor

I am the slime from your video
Can't stop the slime, people, lookit me go

I am the slime from your video
Oozin' along on your livin' room floor

I am the slime from your video
Can't stop the slime, people, lookit me go
