Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Armies have conquered and fallen in the end
Kingdoms have risen, then buried by sand
The earth is our mother, she gives and she takes
She puts us to sleep in her light, we'll awake
[Verse 2]
We'll all be forgotten, there's no endless fame
But everything we do, it's never in vain
[Verse 3]
We're part of a story, part of a tale
We're all on this journey no one's to say
Where ever it's going, what is the way?
[Verse 4]
Forests and deserts
Rivers, blue seas
Mountains and valleys
Nothing here stays
[Verse 5]
While we think, we witness
We're part of the scene
This never ending story
Where will it lead to?
[Verse 6]
The earth is our mother, she gives and she takes
But she's also a part, a part of the tale
[Verse 7]
We're part of a story, part of a tale
We're all on this journey, no one's to say
Oh, where is it going, what is the way?
[Verse 8]
We're part of a story, part of a tale
Sometimes beautiful, sometimes insane
No one remembers how it began
[Verse 9]
We're part of a story, part of a tale
We're all on this journey, no one's to say
Oh, where is it going, what is the way?
[Verse 10]
We're part of a story, part of a tale
Sometimes beautiful, sometimes insane
No one remembers how it began
