Styx - Brave New World lyrics

rate me

The lines are drawn in the sand across the caress of time

The lines are drawn in the sand across the caress of time

There's a face in the glass lookin' through the mirror

At the maze of my past it was never clearer

On the distant horizon the sun approaches

Better cover my eyes, better hide the roaches

In the best of my time there was something better

And the quest of my mind was to try and get her

Something simple, pure as the thoughts in my head

Not the tears in the rain over me she shed

(Oh oh oh oh)

We were almost there

(Oh oh oh oh)

Still I was unaware

(Chorus)

Here in the Brave New World's Embrace

I watch the parade begin

Searching for one familiar face

And I wonder where I fit in

How will I know if there's a place

For me in the Brave New World

To be calm in the eye of the human storm

In the house full of dreams I am safe and warm

Looking back on a life filled with warm embraces

No regrets, only memories of smiling faces

(Oh oh oh oh)

We were almost there

(Oh oh oh oh)

Now change is in the air

(Chorus)

Here in the Brave New World's Embrace

I watch the parade begin

Searching for one familiar face

And I wonder where I fit in

How will I know if there's a place

For me in the Brave New World

Until now I held the zone, I ruled the world

I called it home, I never saw the down side

(Oh oh oh oh)

We were almost there

(Oh oh oh oh)

I, I was unaware

(Chorus)

Here in the Brave New World's Embrace

I watch the parade begin

Searching for one familiar face

And I wonder where I fit in

How will I know if there's a place

For me in the Brave New World

See the now, see the zen

There is no divison

Through the eyes of a child

There is perfect vision

And the best of our lives

Resinate the hills

And the sun's going to shine

And you know that I will...
