Reflections

Between birth and death we must find in ourselves

Keepers of secrets stored on life's shelves

Locked in our souls they key is always the past

Don't hold on to things cause you know that they just never last

Somewhere in time your eternal quest

Your fear of dying will be the first test

Looking for meaning to find some purpose to life

Answers to questions that tear at your heart like a knife

Mysteries are but ephemeral reflections in time

Oceans of wisdom run so deep and sublime

How far have we come, left so much behind

Escaping your nature block it out of our mind

Sold us a dream full of pain and despair

So lost in illusion we haven't a prayer

Cycles of change surely to come

As time destroys all, all that we've done

Dig in your souls reflect in your hearts

Cause death is behind us to tear us apart

Show you no mercy, no mercy at all

The valley of death it echoes its call
