|
Fall in to place a splinter in the arrow |
|
We shift and change we grow |
|
Yet still we are but a speck of dust |
|
End of evolution a singular future awaits |
|
Reverse, contract, collapse |
|
And then return to the cosmic egg |
|
We can't explain nor understand |
|
We invent the grandest schemes |
|
It doesn't judge, does not punish |
|
We can't accept that it just is |
|
Free wills or scripted tomorrows |
|
Universe of infinite sorrow |
|
The end gives birth to the past |
|
Answers but questions escape us |
|
A passing phase, presence ends |
|
This life is all |
|
I see In blindness of the memory |
|
I move like light through the sky |
|
I see the future passing by |
|
Lips move with nothing else to say |
|
As all I knew just fades away |
|
Soon there's a new seed formed |
|
I watch as all that was is reborn [Leads: Perry, Dan] |
|
Years tick by an end this cosmic drama |
|
Melting away as the cycle begins again-identical [Chorus] ["Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George Santyana, "The Life Of Reason Or The Phases of Human Progress" (1922)] |
