This is a very experimental song with a vocoder and scratches on it. The story is based on Stanley Kubrick’s ‘2001’ and ‘2010’, but with Arjen’s own fantasy and interpretation incorporated. The listener should do the same; the lyrics cannot be explained one way. Just use your imagination!
The Dawn Of Man Lyrics
OKKIE HUYSDENS:
More than a million years ago
It came to earth out of the sky
From whence it came is yet unknown
And still we don't know why
EDWARD REEKERS:
Way beyond infinity
Where time is lost
And life has ceased to be
OKKIE HUYSDENS: And life has ceased to be
EDWARD REEKERS:
There's a cosmic entity
A bringer of life
For all eternity
Is this how it all began?
The dawn of man
OKKIE HUYSDENS:
More than a million miles from earth
Somewhere in outer space
Behold a planetary birth
Making way for a brand new race
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
Way beyond infinity
OKKIE HUYSDENS:
Where time is lost
And life has ceased to be
And life has ceased to be
ROBERT SOETERBOEK:
There's a cosmic entity
OKKIE HUYSDENS:
A bringer of life
For all eternity
EDWARD REEKERS:
Is this how it all began?
The dawn of man
Is this how it all began?
