10,000 Years

When I was only a kid, I hid in the pyramids

Archeologists came so I just changed my name

I had years still to go, they were moving too slow

I was here from the start, now it's the end of the show

Forever, I never thought that this day would come

She's been my everything, not anything or anyone

Could kill the time and wait in line for a sign

Textbooks they don't mention me, forgotten over centuries

Last call that's on me, here's to eternity

10,000 years, now she's finally here

If the words come out wrong, I'll disappear

Now that I'm older than sin

I think the heavens caught wind

They send a postcard from home

They wanna throw me back in

But I am Omega Man, I am out on the lam

I think it's well understood that they don't understand

Me, myself, and I, we're hiding out in history

A specific hieroglyphic message sent to me

To kill the time, wait in line, for a sign

Final hour, nevermore, tonight's the night I've waited for

Last call that's on me, here's to eternity

And I know she's right for me, just the wrong century

10,000 years, now she's finally here

If the words come out wrong, I'll disappear

To the stars in the sky shining down on the girl

From the beginning of time, till the end of the world
