Transience

you have now been through our sorrows
we opened up to show you what it´s like -- in our lives

one thing is sure -- all your lives are just a crumb in time
everything dies
we watch you act like there´s no more tomorrow

you have now felt the spirit given
now open up -- let it inside -- in your mind

and time is tickin´ n´ tickin´
and time is tickin´n´ tickin away

we watch them slippin away
we watch them fall -- we watch them prey
when colors turn into grey
even we´re not meant to stay
even if we slip away

everything ends -- the sea and the sky
so how can we think we are the pride of
creation in space -- we´ll never find out
we have to believe -- and hope something´s left when we die

time is the ground we lose every second of our life

we are the vampires on tomato juice
