Tether the line to bind us to the moment

Never the time to comprehend, this

Existential

Reality for us

We've weathered the tide, secluded by the sacred

Our survival called for it

But it always, always

Kept us from the answer

It's our calling

To reach beyond our station

Just one reason for defiance

Reminded of all we've forgotten

Fated to fade into nothing

You arе not alone

We're all hеading there

Sever the ties to all those with the gall to

Monopolise the infinite

When the only surety, is

Our return to dust

Forever behind our forebears in the distance

Treading where I fear to tread

And every atom

Tells me to turn away

We're all marching through the fire

Desperate to sate our desire

Heedless we climb ever higher

Driven on to greater heights

We'll chase the sinking sun

United in oblivion

We're overrun

We'll face our end together

Under this sanguine sky

One fleeting glimpse of the divine

For you and I

Nothing lasts forever

Give us a sign to hasten the acceptance

Of our own mortality

None of us get to

Change the road we're on

All that's

Left for us

Is to make amends

With our lack of permanence

Imperfect as we are

Disconnected from the stars

And cast back down to earth

Clarity returns

We forget none of this is a given

We forget none of this is a given

We forget none of this is a given

Give it up and search for something better

We'll chase the sinking sun

United in oblivion

We're overrun

We'll face our end together

Under this sanguine sky

One fleeting glimpse of the divine

For you and I

Nothing lasts forever

Easier now for us to empathise with

Others upon the path

Harder to harbour this animosity

There is another way

Divided we may stand but

United we will fall

Savour the absurdity

Of being here at all

We'll chase the sinking sun

United in oblivion

We're overrun

We'll face our end together

Under this sanguine sky

One fleeting glimpse of the divine

For you and I

Nothing lasts forever
