lyrics

We saw the morning sun over the horizon
The starry skies at night, ocean waves arriving
The secrets of the world all laid out before us
That’s the reason why everyone must die

While learning how to speak, we stumbled upon reason
We read the books of God and the rules for how to please Him
Lived through war and peace and went from rags to riches
But like that Russian spy, everyone must die

We know too much about the molecules, the atoms and the particles of matter
So it’s written in the skies: Everybody dies.

Raindrops in the sand, reflections on the buildings
A newborn child’s hand wrapped around your fingers
The question arises why does everybody try to make life linger
When we all can hear it sigh: "Everyone must die"
