Nothing can survive in a vacuum

No one can exist all alone

We pretend things only happen to strangers

We've all got problems of our own It's enough to learn to share our pleasures

We can't soothe pain with sympathy

All that we can do is be reminded

We shake our heads at the tragedy Every day we're standing in a time capsule

Racing down a river from the past

Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel

Facing down the future coming fast It's just the age

It's just a stage

We disengage

We turn the page Looking at the long range forecast

Catching all the names in the news

Checking out the state of the nation

Learning the environmental blues Truth is after all a moving target

Hairs to split and pieces that don't fit

How can anybody be enlightened?

Truth is after all so poorly lit Every day we're standing in a time capsule

Racing down a river from the past It's just the age

It's just a stage

We disengage

We turn the page

We turn the It's just the age

It's just a stage

We disengage

We turn the page Every day we're standing in a time capsule

We disengage

We turn the page

Racing down a river from the past

It doesn't matter if you're in a wind tunnel

It's just the age We disengage

We turn the page

Racing down a region from the past

It's just we're standing in a wind tunnel

It's just the age

We disengage

We turn the page

Racing down a river from the past

Every day we're standing in a time capsule
