The Interplay Of Life And Death


Music & lyrics by: Chris Harms & Alexander Paul Blake


Lyrics:

 

What will remain of us

In a billion years

When the sun explodes

And there are no more fears

When we are dust in space

Who will remember then

And all the things we've done

And all the selfless men

 

Just a split second are we

In the interplay of life and death

The interplay of life and death

 

Just a split second are we

In the memory of astro planes

A glimpse of eternity

A grain

Just a split second are we

In the interplay of life and death

A glimpse of eternity

A breath

 

What will remain of us

In a billion years

When the cosmos overthrows

Is there laughter, are there tears?

Will there be a new life

That finds our trace somewhere

And asks who we have been

Will someone really care

 

The interplay of life and death

 

What will remain of us

In a future so far

Will it be lost

Everything that we are

What is the sense of it

When we leave no trace?

Is there a masterplan

Behind the depths of space?

 

The interplay of life and death
