No one can exist all alone
We pretend things only happen to strangers
We've all got problems of our own.
It's enough to learn to share our pleasures
We can't soothe pain with sympathy
All that we can do is be reminded
We shake our heads at the tragedy.
Every day we're standing in a time capsule
Racing down a river from the past
Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel
Facing down the future coming fast.
It's just the age
It's just a stage
We disengage
We turn the page.
Looking at the long range forecast
Catching all the names in the news
Checking out the state of the nation
Learning the environmental.
Truth is after all a moving target
Hairs to split and pieces that don't fit.
How can anybody be enlightened?
Truth is after all so poorly lit.
Every day we're standing in a time capsule
Racing down a river from the past
Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel
Facing down the future coming fast.
It's just the age
It's just a stage
We disengage
We turn the page.
