What will become of us?
What will become of us?
Society onlooking with their portrait faces
Mortal ideas of eternity floating
Three seconds of time in the dust
Like a forgotten flower gently wilting in a vase
I’ll never see a perfect sunrise
with my eyes looking through a veil
You are nothing but a dot of ink in this story
just a symbol of what lies ahead
We won’t be remembered and that’s fine
The ones who came before us
they are just other peoples words
Other peoples accounts for what happened then.
When we are the last ones to survive
then they see our faces
they will know our names in time
We lay the pages to our story
that’s not fully written
Looking through my windows
nothing but barren wasteland
Through the peep hole in the door
The sun awaits for me to show my face
to make my mark
I can only understand what I want
When I know what that is
I will tread my mountain to clear a path.
