Hope for the Future - Marillion

I’ve been feeling kind of down and loose

Like a Rosicrucian pope

Head down deep in the womb of time

Carrying a message of hope

My hands steady as a hangman’s hands

Surer than the hangman’s rope

I could sleep for invisible years

Carrying a message of hope

For the future

For the future

Carrying a message

Carrying a message

Carrying a message

Message of hope

I’ve been feeling kind of down and loose

Like a Rosicrucian pope

Head down deep in the womb of time

Carrying a message of hope

My hands steady as a hangman’s hands

Surer than the hangman’s rope

I could sleep for invisible years

Carrying a message of hope

For the future

For the future

I found a power on a dusty shelf

Hey!-the languages I learned

Now I’m so powerful I hurt myself

I hurt myself

I feel kind of limbie brain

Like the library of an astronaut

Found hidden in a pyramid

Shadowing a body of thought

Carrying a message

Message of hope

Madam I’m Adam, I’m a palindrome

Never odd or even any time

Fishin and smilin like a garden gnome

Twisting tales and spinning lines

Spinning lines

Twisting tales

Why don’t we twist like we did last year?

Carrying, carrying a message

Message of hope
