Track 5 on The Pale And Crescent Moon album

lyrics

There’s a man with a plan, gonna live forever.
He knows the risks of it all, he knows that he may never,
see the sunrise again, feel his heartbeat again.

Signed the forms, stamped the books now he’s just a number.
Said farewell now he’s in a cryogenic slumber,
Frozen still in his frame, chemicals in his veins.

So Solid Guy sleeps on his journey to the future,
Too scared to die, I hope the new Millennium suits you.

Will they know what to do when it’s time to wake you?
Will there be any room for yet another human, I hope your life is secure,
I hope they find you a cure.

Will they try to revive you or leave you under?
What could you offer them you’re just an ancient wonder,
just a strange little man, from the distant past.

So Solid Guy sleeps on his journey to the future,
Too scared to die, I hope the new Millennium suits you.

All the energy you take could save a thousand lives today.
It’s just insurance in the end, all the money that you spend.
There’s no guarantees at all, you might as well have blown it all - because your so afraid.

So Solid Guy sleeps on his journey to the future, too scared to die, I hope the new Millennium suits you.
