  • You are the crown of creation
    You are the crown of creation
    And you've got no place to go

    Soon you'll attain the stability you strive for
    In the only way that it's granted
    In a place among the fossils of our time

    In loyalty to their kind
    They cannot tolerate our minds
    In loyalty to our kind
    We cannot tolerate their obstruction

    Life is change
    How it differs from the rocks
    I've seen their ways too often for my liking
    New worlds to gain
    My life is too survive
    And be alive for you
