Ayreon - This Human Equation (Official Lyric Video)
Order:
Here is the 3rd groovy lyric video from the new Ayreon album Transitus, highlighting the lovely Simone Simons as the ruthless but deceptively cute Angel of Death in Transitus. I also love the priceless introduction by our favorite doctor, Tom Baker. And yes Ayreonauts... there are several clues to the intricate Ayreon mythology, besides the obvious reference in the title: THIS HUMAN EQUATION!
LYRICS:
[The Storyteller:]
Meanwhile, the Angel and her Furies are observing all these earthly events from their vantage point in Transitus. Hmm! They find the complexities of human nature fascinating, perplexing, and endlessly entertaining. And they are determined to resolve… this Human Equation! Ha ha ha! Oh… poor people…
[The Angel of Death and The Furies:]
You’d think they were crazy, I’d almost say… stupid
But they can be amazing, although they don’t look it
Yes they can be charming, uniquely disarming, naive but enchanting
On a good day they’re gracious, well-mannered, endearing, yes dare I say… nice
They seem so contented, yet inside so damn sad
They pretend to be decent, then turn out to be bad
They claim to be honest, but really they’re liars
They try to be modest, but often they’re cocky, conceited, pretentious, obnoxious and… vain
This Human Equation, is driving us crazy, this Human Equation
This Human Equation, success and frustration
Wealth and starvation, moral stagnation
This Human Equation, evolved or creation?
The one explanation: Universal Migration!
They plan, they scheme, they’re not what they seem
They hide behind their disguise
They’re loud, they brag, they shout and they nag
But man what a drive, they’re on fire, see them thrive
They’re alive!
This Human Equation, is driving us crazy, this Human Equation
And yet they amuse us, just because they confuse us
For their logic eludes us, but their passion consumes us
You’d think they are crazy, I’d almost say stupid
But then they amaze you, although they don’t look it
They seem so contented, yet inside so damn sad
They pretend to be decent, then turn out to be bad
And yet they amuse us, just because they confuse us
For their logic eludes us, but their passion consumes us
Yes they can be charming, uniquely disarming, naive but enchanting
On a good day they’re gracious, well-mannered, endearing, yes dare I say… nice!
