Old Mystics Songtext
von Rolo Tomassi

Golden age, golden age
The world was ours, for us to change
Have we sat back and watched it fall
Without a single tear at all?
Golden age, golden age
The seed of worlds in our ruins
Shadows of final verity
And passing faces held to me
Aspirations may disintegrate
May have to quit, but stand to gain
A galaxy of falling stars
My heartbreaks shed the acrid dark
And you′re to decide
What is the worth of this time?
What is the worth of this?
What did you think you had in store?
I missed the key for motion
Still focusing, day to day
That knowledge and what we've kept on
Effortlessly lose it all


Something we seek so widely
Appreciate what has been gained
With no responsibility
Setting sun, setting sun
Our darkest days have now begun
Ambition leads to making haste
Many days we′ve gone to waste
Recklessness, concrete regrets
Dismiss the memories of these friends
New times are throughout these years
Let's try another day of this
Golden age, golden age
Time was now ours, in its hands
I feel a fate that watched me rise
And now it's moving, sinking fast
Direction time to start things new
It′s my truth, I can′t follow you
Open your eyes and explore
Here forever, nevermore
What did you think you had in store?
I missed the key for motion
Still focusing, day to day
That knowledge and what we've kept on
Effortlessly lose it all
Something we seek so widely
Appreciate what has been gained
With no responsibility
The last in our generation
Will this be the end of the erasure?
Ignite this revelation
Here forever, nevermore
