Life After Life

No one lives forever

No one dies for long

In this hallucination

Upside down is the right side of wrong

This space-less space, timeless time, amnesia of human-kind

But there is a voice

Whispering in your soul

All you have forgotten

Determined to be known

All the things you should have said but didn’t say

Life after life

All the things you could have done but didn’t do

Life after life

Remembering

Life after life

Where you were before you were you

Listening to the growing of the grass

Watching time-lapsed clouds pass

The strange becomes familiar

The familiar strange

Some things best experienced

Not explained

Everything is not what it seems

Sensing outlines of forms unseen

Those sirens on that distant shore

Tempting you back for more

But what really brought you to Earth?

But what really guided you from birth?

You know you’re dreaming but you can’t wake up

Trapped on the inside but out of touch

The inner, the outer, the believer, the doubter

But the biggest clue with what is true?

Your thoughts are thinking, you

All the things you should have said but didn’t say

Life after life

All the things you could have done but didn’t do

Life after life

Remembering

Life after life

Where you were before you were you

All the things you should have said but didn't say

Life after life

All the things you could have done but didn't do

Life after life

Remembering

Life after life

Where you were before you were you
