Unknown

just beyond the water wide
mist is cov'ring up the light
just beyond the limpid pools
lay dusky shades of night

just across the vast unknown
the clouds are full and dense
just beyond the astral trance
and nothing here makes sense

just across the future pale
our lives have gone a-tatter
just beyond that broken wreck
where everythings a-shatter

just across those dwindling times
a hidden passage looms
just beyond uncharted seas
a different future looms
