Xanadu Lyrics

From the bathing in the blood of the innocent

To the cold manipulation of cells

We will find an earthly way to begin again

If we have to drag the beast out of hell

Know that we will find a way to turn back the years

And live forever in a world of our own

Everybody else can perish in entropy

But you and I have earned our right to the throne

I'm taking you

To Xanadu

And as the waters rise up over the barriers

As the people start to run out of air

We'll have more than anybody can carry

But I will help you with the load that you bear

Yes we can do it all if we throw enough money at it

We will find the great elixir of life

Everybody else will be starving and bleeding out

But you and I will be there holding the knife

I'm taking you

To Xanadu

I'm not talking bout some trip to the afterlife

I'm not talking bout the freezing of brains

I'm not talking bout uploading my consciousness

What Henrietta lacks, we've got it in spades

We'll devour the peaches of immortality

We will dam the mythic fountain of youth

I will lift the holy stone of philosophy

And bring it down upon the masses below

I'm taking you

To Xanadu
