Lyrics:
Tear apart the life and times of familiar faces,
And tracing lines to what connects me and binds me to,
Images of the remote and never-changing,
Grand designs, style and grace.

And am I,
Lost in thoughts,
On open seas,
Let the currents carry me,
If I could, would I remain,
Another life for another dream?
No turning back, face the fact,
I am lost in space and time,
Standing here, looking back in time.

One and all, let us celebrate the rise and fall,
Celebrate the life and times of splendor,
Desire and love, constant and never-changing,
The flow of time's closing lines.

Can't tell if I'm just,
Lost in thoughts,
On open seas,
Let the currents carry me,
If I could, would I remain,
Another life for another dream?
No turning back, face the fact,
I am lost in space and time,
Standing here, looking back in time.

Lost in thoughts,
On open seas,
Let the currents carry me,
If I could, would I remain,
Another life for another dream?
No turning back, face the fact,
I am lost in space and time,
Standing here, looking back in time.

Lost in thoughts,
On open seas,
Let the currents carry me,
If I could, would I remain,
Another life for another dream?
No turning back, face the fact,
I am lost in space and time,
Standing here, looking back in time.

The best thing about VNV, in my opinion, is that whatever they write I enjoy listening to. It shouldn't be about 'Does this sound like a VNV song, a VNV genre song, or something more mainstream?'. It should be about whether you can listen to a VNV song and have a smile on your face. Every single VNV song I have listened to, with only one or two exceptions, wakes up an emotion inside me. Including this incredible song. #VNVForever

@ImmortalNation

You have a good point. I still do enjoy the music, whether or not I think it fits in with the rest of what they've done, and that's what matters.

[michaeljetfire]

You guys arent exactly giving this band credit. what I -truly- enjoy about VNV Nation... they are -NOT- afraid to try something new, whether its what fans want or not. They have the balls to go out and give something else a try with their sound as opposed to the same old, same old. VNV Nation forever!

@michaeljetfire

Well, there you go. It's what *YOU* enjoy about them. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the same for everyone. I still like the album, but not as much as their others.

[NewEonOrchestra]

I enjoyed this song. Sure, VNV Nation's sound has changed in the past ten years, but that's what bands do.

[BartyMae]

@NewEonOrchestra

True. But that doesn't mean I have to like where they've gone. Still. A good song and an overall good album - just not what I want from them. But obviously people enjoy it, so they must be doing something right.

[8zZEpicZz8]

The thing I personally enjoy as much as listening to their music, is reading the well thought out, kind, sincere comments written by all of you people, if you went to any 'popular' song, rap genre mainly, you would never, and I mean never, find this type of 'down to earth' comments. Its really changing my opinion of the people on youtube, from a collection of random idiots to a 'community' of normal, respectable, people.

[TestTubeTony]

Saw them last night. was beautiful. Almost spiritual. Great show.

Good old Vnv Nation still kicking some ass a good 20 year strong. These guys never disappoint

Pandora brought me here.. dj mango radio

[Kurra73]

lovely



[BattlestarPsynalizer]

I never heard of them until last week and I'm in love with this album, it really gives me strength

[ragingmonkey64]

@michaeljetfire Totally agree with you there, but that's also what I don't like about this album. Their first four, particularly Matter+Form really experimented with different sounds and seemed to evolve. Judgment sort of did, and OFPG was excellent in its own right, but it kind of feels like VNV is staying in its own niche and not really stepping outside. This and Control are really the only songs that felt different and exclusive to this album.

my favourite song :)
