Metamorphosis

about

This is probably one of the most personal Utopia Now songs. It basically meditates on the process of aging and the mental metamorphosis we all undergo. I personally have never been very good at accepting this evolution. However, only if we acknowledge and, to some extent, embrace it we can get the most out of it. This is something I need to remind myself of every now and then.

lyrics

Winds of ages blow through the mane,
early mirrors present one with strangers.
A cloudy lifetime inhibits the brain
and holds back the step.

Every tumbrel of thought bears a lost
shard of a self from a time indeterminable.
There's a point when one stumbles across
the unexplored road ahead.

Chorus:
Time to shed the ancient load
and kick the gear into travel mode.
There's just no time to let one day pass unseen.

New roads lead to a new horizon.
Metamorphic remodeling of existence.
Skin is shed, wings are dried in the sun.
A new time is near.

And suddenly grey suits you very well,
and endless, wild nights are so much overrated,
and all the world lies in one single cell.
Tomorrow is here.

Chorus:
