OUR ESCAPE June 4/85 Karl Rigelhof

If we wait for an answer
We may all be dead from cancer
Of the mind
We know fate is the dancer
Who will be the one to chance her
And leave behind
All regrets
But don't forget
The reasons why
It was so hard to find

If we debate the possibilities
It will be too late for plausibility
Our course is mapped
We will create the probabilities
Don't hesitate to achieve velocity
Or we'll be trapped
Here forever
It's now or never
Time to fly
Away from all of this crap

If we state what we're after
In between all of the laughter
Is heard a lonely cry
We have to contemplate how to master
Our fear of future disasters
We must try
To open our eyes
And analyze
How to get by
Without (anyone) having to die
Without searching the skies
For our escape
