We tend to think of ourselves as much more important to the grand cosmic
|
Scale of the universe than we truly are. This is not to say that our
|
Individual lives are not valued or of importance, but the universe will not
|
Tremble at the thought of our passing; Truth exists regardless of our
|
Existence, and nothing we can do or say can strip that Truth of it's
|
Meaning. At the end of the man's life he faces all he has been, all that he
|
Has known. He has traversed the tunnels of nihilism and faith, and found
|
Himself facing one final, immutable Truth.
|
We've conquered everything, these minds and these machines.
|
By our hands the earth stops it's spin, and with our will it begins again.
|
But our first breath is as our last. Our first breath is as our last. Our
|
First breath is as our last.
|
|
And will the heavens still shine without our gaze?
|
And will the seasons still pass if there's no one to count the days?
|
|
We fade like the summer leaves in fall, then drift with the winters wind.
|
And still we thought that we were gods, but we're nothing more than a grain
|
Of sand in time.
|
|
We've conquered everything, these minds and these machines.
|
By our hands the earth stops it's spin, and with our will it begins again.
|
But when the mountains turn to dust, and the rivers all run dry,
|
When my final breath has come and gone, this place will carry on.
|
|
We are nothing more than grains of sand on the shores of time.
