Turning the wheel to emptiness
|
There when you breathe your final breath
|
No one to hold you anymore
|
Haven't they told you, baby
|
|
You're always alive
|
Always alive
|
|
Leaving the plane of time and space
|
Leaving the mask of every face
|
Just like the sun and every ray
|
Might as well smile 'cause baby
|
|
We all die one day
|
We all die one day
|
|
Not square, not round
|
The silence in the sound
|
Not short, not long
|
The quiet in the song
|
It carries you along
|
|
Some of the people here believe
|
Reading a book of prophesies
|
Some of you sigh and turn away
|
Nobody knows, so what's the play?
|
|
You're here now
|
You're here for now
|
|
What does it matter anyway
|
Whatever I sing or what you say
|
Taking a chance, we place a bet
|
It ain't gonna get you to black or red
|
|
This time around
|
This time around
|
|
No cause, no condition
|
Who knows your position?
|
Not you, no other
|
What will you discover?
|
|
You never disappear
|
So tell me why you fear
|
Neither are you born
|
Sometimes still you mourn
|
|
Never do you arise
|
You're never low or high
|
No one acts, no one is made
|
Nothing glows, nothing fades
|
|
Nothing fades, nothing fades
|
Nothing fades, nothing fades
|
