Arc of a Journey

[Verse 1]
Clouds float away like iron tools on the moon
All my time is in half-life
Memories over memories
Can I see more than I'm programmed to be?

[Chorus 1]
Constellation of Orion
A picture with a past, a future so vast
A mnemonic game on the arc of a journey

[Verse 2]
I report there once were cities
Open academies, avenues, and trees
Human law, automatic oracles
Calendar, the years, verbal hemispheres

[Chorus 2]
Constellation of Orion
The repositioned light, the postatomic night
Informing me I'm near the axis of feeling

[Chorus 1]
Constellation of Orion
A picture with a past, a future so vast
A mnemonic game on the arc of a journey
