Lyrics Ayreon – The Human Compulsion
Text:
The Counselor:
Do we belong here, do we hide behind our dreams?
Can we live without machines?
The Historian:
Or will we always hunt for more?
The Chemist:
Liquid Eternity perpetuates our lives
But will it paralyze our minds?
The Historian:
Can we resist our compulsion to explore
Or will we always hunt for more?
The Counselor:
Do we belong here, do we hide behind our dreams?
Can we live without machines?
The Diplomat:
Without the danger, can we still evolve?
Will our passions all dissolve?
The President:
Remember Alpha, the source of human life
Will our history be revived?
The Prophet:
The second coming of the Universal Soul
Will make our hollow spirits whole
The Captain:
Maybe one day, man will rise again
Standing tall as we were then
The Astronomer:
Is this our destiny, a life forevermore
Or will we crave our time before?
The Opposition Leader:
Are we still human, buried in our minds?
Or did we leave ourselves behind?
The Biologist:
Our tale’s not over, the circle’s incomplete
We won’t just vanish in the sea!
