Parts Unknown

©1986, 2004 John C. Lind

 

We blazed the Trails to Parts Unknown
And reaped the Fruits of Spores unsown
Looking down outside of Time and Space
The Curtain drawn on the Human Race

For the present is now past
And the future was the last
Beginnings cease and die anew
The Valkyrie waits for the Chosen Few

And when we take you past the End,
You will never be the same again.

A Virgin Birth, a day of mirth
As written in the Past
We’re heaven sent and shan’t relent
The Die has now been cast

Of Distant Age our Memory fades
The resolution blurs
When the Eastern Tribes arrived with bribes
Of frankincense and myrrh

A Cosmic Blight of Heavy Light
Will turn your faces Blue
Freemasons claim to know Its Name
And this could well be true

The serpent sings
The Hymn of Reckoning
The Signs are Right
They will come tonight

The Promised Land
A Haven from the Damned
Never may
Come your way

And when we take you past the End,
You will never be the same again.
