PilGrims in ProGress - All of Your Heroes Are Dead (Remastered)
All the dreams that once were dreamt
All the songs that were not played
All the masterpieces grandly left unmade
All the magic of the masters
All the works that once were planned
All the secrets revealed by those who understand
All that incantation that was long since sought and found
To be a time and a word and a vision and a sound
All the times you set your course only then to run aground
All the reinvented wheels that turned out round
When all of the books have been read
And all of the kids have been fed
And all of the things have been said
And all of your heroes are dead
They will tell you it has all been said and done before
They will tell you it's just déjà vu once more
They will tell you that time flies - but the pilot is you
Where the beat goes on is a place they cannot dance to
It's a dance on a volcano searching for its inner flame
It's a song of how it all remains the same
It's a song for all seasons and it is a song for none
It's the first light of a setting sun
When all of the books have been read
And all of the kids have been fed
And all of the things have been said
And all of your heroes are dead
After all the old skins have been shed
This is where you've been led
Equal measures of hope and of dread
Epigonia still lies ahead
