By 2161, genetic alteration has allowed humanity to stop aging at 25 but people are required to earn more time after turning 25 or die when their accumulated time runs out. 'Living time', which can be transferred among individuals on body-contact, has replaced money and its availability is displayed on an implant on people's lower arm. When that clock reaches zero, one dies instantly. Society is divided by social class living in specialized towns called 'Time Zones'. The poor live in the ghettos of Dayton, where youth predominates, and must work each day to earn a few more hours of life, which they must also use to pay for everyday necessities. The rich live in the luxurious city-like town called New Greenwich, in which the middle-aged and elderly predominate, though they look young because they have stopped aging at 25 years old. They drive fast electric cars, and can live for centuries.
So bring sunrise, slowly
So she has the time, to see
This moonlit cemetery stones
As all surrounding sounds echo
Through the trees, and they're filled with screams
This marble's marked with her name
If the keys she takes can drive her away
I'll be here for you, if there's ever a doubt
Though it's hard for me, but I can't live without
You in my life
So drink up, lovely
Because in time, you'll see
That if you chose to ignore me
This story will end in tragedy
Take these words, a forewarning
This candle's lit, emitting lost flames
If the keys she takes can drive her away
I'll be here for you, if there's ever a doubt
Though it's hard for me, but I can't live without
I'll be here for you, if there's ever a doubt
Though it's hard for me, but I can't live without
You in my life
So take these words, a forewarning
This marble's marked with her name
If the keys she takes can drive her away
I'll be here for you, if there's ever a doubt
Though it's hard for me, but I can't live without
I'll be here for you, if there's ever a doubt
Though it's hard for me, but I can't live without
