End Is the New Beginning

Forgot the reason why we're here Because to me, it was never too clear A life we tire ourselves and continue to steer A world where men refuse to help their peer A realm where everything known and unknown is to fear Give me the reason why we stay Why we simply don't run away Through the gate of death and live another way Eternal life, at least what they say And leave this place today But we can't be sure Of what the future will incur For now, it's all just a blur A happy life is something we must defer To continue this path we must demur We came into being We laughed through the leaping We cried through the grieving We died, existence ceasing And then the real life begins
