The Human Compulsion - Ayreon

Do we belong here, do we hide behind our dreams?

Can we live without machines?

Can we resist our compulsion to explore?

Or will we always hunt for more?

Liquid Eternity perpetuates our lives

But will it paralyze our minds?

Without the danger, can we still evolve?

Will our passions all dissolve?

Remember Alpha, the source of human life

Will our history be revived?

The second coming of the Universal Soul

Will make our hollow spirits whole

Maybe one day, man will rise again

Standing tall as we were then

Is this our destiny, a life forevermore?

Or will we crave our time before?

Are we still human, buried in our minds?

Or did we leave ourselves behind?

Our tale’s not over, the circle’s incomplete

We won’t just vanish in the sea!
