Marillion - Hope For The Future lyrics

(music: marillion lyrics: john helmer) 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
