The Focal Point and the Random Element Lyrics

Framed by dark borders

The Picture comes clear in time

The focus of images, locus of spheres

Contrary results arise in the years

Images tell of her death

Ominous o'er the edge of forever

Lying so near yet flying unseen

Tangible and distant lucid dream

What the captain believes are signs of hope,

Glinting and fleeting as death himself

Contrary dilemmae, malreconciled time,

Duplication of theories, show time's focal point

Attention and gaze

Carried after time's vortex

Where apparitions of surgeons abound

As a a random element soars colours of sound

Images tell of her death

Ominous o'er the edge of forever

Lying so near yet flying unseen

Tangible and distant lucid dream

What the captain believes are signs of hope,

Glinting and fleeting as death himself

Contrary dilemmae, malreconciled time,

Duplication of theories, show time's focal point

Exhausted mnemonic path

Has scored what an be known

With stone knives and bearskins

When we don't know the game

How can we win?

Images tell of her life

Prestigious unto the future

A conf'rence call with a pow'rful man

How has the surgeon twisted time's sand

What the captain believes are signs of hope,

Glinting and fleeting as death himself

Contrary dilemmae, malreconciled time,

Duplication of theories, show time's focal point
