500 Years
I've been waiting for 500 years In the hope that my lost love appears Watching clouds of shifting shapes go by Casting shadows, dancing for awhile
People come and people go Reincarnating I will be waiting I will be waiting here Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall They keep on waiting I'll keep on waiting Even if it takes 500 years
I saw King Arthur pull his sword from stone I was there the day he took his throne I looked on as Merlin disappeared And when Lancelot took Guinevere
People come and go Reincarnating I will be waiting I will be waiting here And kingdoms rise And kingdoms fall They keep updating I'll keep on waiting Even if it takes 500 years.
Keep Climbing Keep Climbing higher and higher Keep Climbing higher and higher Keep Climbing higher and higher Keep Climbing higher and higher Keep Climbing higher and higher Keep Climbing higher and higher - I looked inside in search of me and found a forest in a tree they tried their best to cut me down and sell my branches by the pound you're not alone you're not the only one to float upon the ocean as the moon becomes the sun
Keep Climbing etc ,,
when my blood begins to freeze at 98.6 degrees I throw away the master plan to run much faster than I can you don't need me you don't need anyone to feed on your emotions as the moon becomes the sun
keep climbing higher and higher etc.

Last Man in Space
Little lost world Final mission Eighteen light years in position now Summers back home Are getting colder Thinking 'bout you and you're so much older now It's a pretty long way back to somewhere Forget all those dreams there's no one out there now
It's a shame you got left behind Follow the sound It's a shame there's no gravity Pulling me down It's a shame you had to leave me here I don't want to die It's a shame at the end of time To leave my only world behind
I guess it all ends here Like it started Another Big Bang and we're broken-hearted, now At the end of this endless road I will pull the trigger on this violent payload now Cause when the whole thing's gone without a trace I'll be the last man in space
It's a shame you got left behind Follow the sound It's a shame there's no gravity Pulling me down It's a shame you had to leave me here I don't want to die It's a shame at the end of time To leave my only world behind
It's a shame you got left behind Follow the sound It's a shame there's no gravity Pulling me down It's a shame you had to leave me here I don't want to die It's a shame at the end of time To leave my only world behind.

Seven Suns (setting)
Science's height -type? words and hype voices you hear faces so dear voids of space your name replaced wonder at last you judge your past future to past?
we see seven suns setting like a memory we're forgetting
halcyon days summer haze fleeting views keep amused queer skies circular lies a moments regained to spend (what remains?)
we see seven suns setting like a memory we're forgetting
I tried to follow you but it's frightening you came here and it's rising it's rising
conversation action at a distance conversation action at a distance conversation action at a distance conversation action at a distance
we see seven suns setting like a memory we're forgetting
I tried to follow you but it's frightening you came here and it's rising it's rising

... no word on the missing 11th song, it seems. It was titled 'Greenmana', which can be an anagram for 'enneagram', some of that hilarious Ouspensky/Gurdjieff stuff. That seems to fit with the other hilarious alchemical stuff JJ uses.
Here's a fun tidbit: the logo for 13th tone records, the label this album is on, shows a drawing of a keyboard that is NOT a piano keyboard (wrong # of keys)--I'm reminded of 12 tone scale, John Cage, pentatonic scales..... where is Kreisler when I need him? )

Hmmm... looking at my piano, and remembering....
Quote :
Each octave has thirteen notes, with the thirteenth being the beginning of the next octave as well. A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, and again, A.

and...... in reading up on things in the lyrics, in Seven Suns (Setting), "action at a distance" is repeated several times, (look up Bell's theorem... or vacuum energy /space time )------- I ran across this band: Action At a Distance
