B-Side - Flashes
Lyrics

It’s not a fantasy, to be, immortal

See our destiny, a timeless portal

Your mind’s eye, is finely tuned

And when everything turns blue…

-

YOU’VE GOT A WINDOW ON THE FUTURE

YOU’VE GOT THE SKILL TO MAKE IT PASS

AND IF THE CONDITIONS SUIT YOU

YOU CAN LOOK INTO THE PAST

-

It’s not a fantasy, to be, utopian

See our destiny, when you are open

Web of time, you’re scanning threads

Suddenly it all goes red…

-

YOU’VE GOT A WINDOW ON THE FUTURE

YOU’VE GOT THE SKILL TO MAKE IT PASS

AND IF THE CONDITIONS SUIT YOU

YOU CAN LOOK INTO THE PAST

-

It’s not a fantasy, to change by choices

See our history, in whispered voices

Heroes gone, from them you learn

As you focus, visions blur…

-

YOU’VE GOT A WINDOW ON THE FUTURE

YOU’VE GOT THE SKILL TO MAKE IT PASS

AND IF THE CONDITIONS SUIT YOU

YOU CAN LOOK INTO THE PAST

-

It’s not a fantasy, to hope for glory

See our history, a bloody story

Who will write, the next line?

Hidden message, groping blind…

-

WITH YOUR FLASHES FROM THE FUTURE

YOU KNOW THE FINAL TRUTH

WILL WE DESTROY EACH OTHER

OR FIND ETERNAL YOUTH?

Lowdown

This is a song about how one person could change the world if they could see the future and relive events that have already happened through the eyes of those that were there.

Mistakes could be avoided, advice taken from historical figures, having taken actions that either worked well or backfired.

Maybe if one person could change the future, we'd be a lot nearer a perfect society by now.
