about

"Based on Dan Simmons' novel of the same name, specifically the story of Sol Weintraub." - Keith Vitali

lyrics

A trek across the desert heat to find an ancient artifact
Thru whipping winds lungs choked with sand I stumble in the tombs
Walls warped with alien otherworlds and eerie architecture
I approach the glowing altar
Priceless treasure in my sight.

With a flash of light I feel a buzzing in my brain
The fires singe my spine and nothing is the same

Each day I wake up soon I realize I find myself a slave to time
Floating ever backwards one day younger than before this soon I realize

Cuz I'm trapped!
Trapped in the tombs of time

My journey back through life again
From 30, 20 now to 10
Each day I'm told that I am sick and must stay home from school
My parents both seem ancient now the doctors all have given up
There's nothing in this world for me what else is there to do?

That flash of life forever has changed me
My life is in reverse and now I'm turning three

Fighting and scratching to say outside of the womb.

"I.....am....UNBORN!"
