Ayreon - The Uncertainty Principle lyrics

8: 03 this morning

On his daily visit to the Lighthouse
The Teacher is stunned at what he finds:
The Prodigy is slumped in a
Corner, totally unresponsive
His hand clutching a crumpled note the
Teacher reads the note and
Immediately phones the Girl
Who rushes over to the
Lighthouse when she arrives
The Teacher can hear her hurriedly
Saying goodbye to someone as
She bursts into the room
Fumbling to put away her
Phone her eyes are already red from crying
But a flood of new tears erupts
When she sees the Prodigy
She turns to the Teacher to
Find out what happened

His mind took flight
And his eyes have lost their light
All we have to go on is a note

They changed the world last night
Working together, side by side
His father is the only one who knows

You haven't been told?
That was his mother on the phone
There was a tragedy last night

His father can't have been here
It had to be some ghostly dream
For at the fall of day he took his life!
