[intro] [Verse1] When we lose our memory Time loses its ground It loses its connection to the world It loses its reference point It becomes something in itself A disconnected piece of energy A detached object floating in space [Verse2] An island Not anchored to the world Not related to it A sleeping reality A fragment of eternity [Verse3] But a memory Without a memory Is a person without roots Without a home Without family An orphan It's a poor little creature A poor little child Lost and confused [Verse4] It's a little flower With no place to blossom No soil to grow in No light to guide it It's a tree With no land to plant its roots in No branches to hold its fruits No sun to give it warmth It's a tree Lost in the desert Lost in a sea of sand [Verse5] A time without memory Is a ship without sails Without a mast Without an anchor A ship adrift With no course With no captain With no harbor It's a ship lost at sea [verse6] A time without memory Is a word without a language Without a sound Without a meaning A word A sound A thought Without a speaker Without a listener Without a place A word lost in the wind Lost in the ether Lost in the air It's a lost thought Lost in the universe In the infinite void Lost in space [interlude] [Organ solo] [Hook] [Drop] [Outro] [Fade to end]
