about

"The Phantom was intrigued.

Eons had passed since it had encountered a human with "the ability."

The Phantom knew the potential of such a being.
And so, this trans-dimensional arbiter took a special interest in him.

The Phantom began to recall the man it had once judged so long ago, and as those memories arose within it.. it passed into both their minds.

In his mind he was suddenly transported to another place, another time.

There, He saw a man that brought light to the world."

lyrics

Haven't you seen?
There's a new invention here in London
Alternating, Captivating
A miracle to science
You won't believe me until you see

In my life I've had an affliction
Of flashes of light and visions of inspiration
In my dreams there appeared an angel
Bearing resemblance to my mother
Her words were...
You've arrived Nidzo my pride

Haven't you heard?
This genius is secluded in the woods
Mad as a hatter he's a fish out of water
A true disgrace to science
You wont believe be until you see

In my life I've had an affliction
Of flashes of light and visions of inspiration
In my dreams there appeared an angel
Bearing resemblance to my mother
Her words were...
You've arrived Nidzo my pride

Deep woods mad man
He's often understood by the few who disappear
Deep woods mad man
He's just misunderstood
As though the message was not clear

The truth is those who blind with their brilliance
Won't be forgotten.....
