In the year 2000, Will we still have minds Will our hearts be stoned cold And who do the blinds? Will the throes and thunder Reflect blue light In the faces and the passages of modern night And who lit the flame Who moved the stone Who promised grace In the face of Rome Life in a world Is a master of time By the year 2000 The star will shine And the neons flashing Will we be machines Will we push the button In racing conscience screams Will the jaggered mountains Fall down to dust Consume the weapons of human lust And who lit the flame Who moved the stone Who promised grace In the face of Rome Life in a world Is a master of time By the year 2000 The star will shine Where will you go What will you do When your life comes crashing Down on you You slammed the door You locked your heart How will you face The endless dark And who lit the flame Who moved the stone Who promised grace In the face of Rome Life in a world Is a master of time By the year 2000 The star will shine And who lit the flame Who moved the stone By the year 2000 May his love being known
