Sure it's a
calming notion
perpetual in motion
but I don't need
the comfort of any lies
For I have seen
the ending
and there is no
ascending
rise
Oh back when
I was younger
was told by
other youngsters
that my end
will be torture
beneath the earth
'Cause I don't see
what they see
when death is
staring at me
I see a window
a limit
to live it
or not at all
If you could
pull the lever
to carry on forever
Would your life
even matter anymore
Sure it's a
calming notion
perpetual in motion
but it's not what you
signed up for
I'm sure there won't
always be sunshine
but there's this
momentary beam of light
You don't have to wait
those salty decades
to get through the gate
it's all in
front of your face
I'm sure there won't
always be sunshine
I'm sure there won't
always be sunshine
but there's this
momentary beam of light
I could could
cross the ocean
in a fit of devotion
For every shining second
this fragile body beckons
You think you're owed
it better
believing ancient letters
Sure it's a calming
notion but it's a lie
