Notion

Sure, it's a calming notion, perpetual in motion But I don't need the comfort of any lies For I have seen the ending, and there is no ascending Rise Oh, back when I was younger, was told by other youngsters That my end will be torture beneath the Earth 'Cause I don't see what they see, when death is staring at me I see a window, a limit, to live it, or not at all If you could pull the lever to carry on forever Would your life even matter anymore? Sure, it's a calming notion, perpetual in motion But it's not what you signed up for I'm sure there won't always be sunshine But there's this momentary beam of light You don't have to wait those salty decades To get through the gate, it's all in front of your face I'm sure there won't always be sunshine I'm sure there won't always be sunshine But there's this momentary beam of light I could-could cross the ocean in a fit of devotion For every shining second this fragile body beckons You think you're owed it better believing ancient letters Sure, it's a calming notion, but it's a lie
