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]

to repeat it." - George Santyana,
