Sometimes it just confounds the mind

To grasp the concept of a world beyond our time

This passing moment still is mine

The tragedy, the ecstasy

With me they're left behind

Find a lie

An optimistic fantasy

Something certain

A ward against insanity

Forever is nothing

A one-way ride to obscurity

Learned never to stare too long into eternity

Forever is nothing

We have our own ways to forget

Your works, they turn to dust

And even dust is impermanent

Don't be sorry

Some things have to be

Hold it high

The glory and the agony

Humanity!

Forever is nothing

A one-way ride to obscurity

Learned never to stare too long into eternity

Forever is nothing

The stinging sweat and the tears you wept

Take comfort in this fact:

You know those tears are impermanent
