Lyrics
Loosen the wire, your time has expired
The only word left is goodbye
In my new dream the light's shining on me
little needles of sodium unstitch the seams of the sky
Hold your head higher, the heavenly choir
Is settling in for the night
And where I had friends, I am left with loose ends
Four hours of vision exchanged for four hours of fright
But enough of the fight
Enough you and I
Enough will prevail or walk in the light
While the angels stand by I get high as a kite
I'm too tired to smile
Or know that I'm right
Am I right
And all our best-laid plans, well, they crumbled in our hands
Our flags fell where they'd fanned
You held in your breath long after projections of death
You sat in the waiting rasping and gasped on dry land
But the audience is tired, we've had enough fire
We're entereing the age now of ice
And I, feeling older, pull off to the shoulder
And wonder, with my head in my hands, should I call my wife
And say Enough you and I
Enough of the fight
Enough of 'prevail' or walk in the light
While the angels stand by I get high as a kite
I'm too tired to smile
Or know that I'm right
Enough you and I
Enough of the fight
Enough of "prevail" or walk in the light
And when the spacecraft came down
I was left on the ground
Will you keep me around
Will you help me survive
After my time
