We enter this world screaming
We leave much the same way
Our silent screams often never heard
And the time between not mattering
We live but to praise the heavens
Knowing full well who sets the sun
Who lights the stars and the moon
The same breathes life into being
We are here but one brief moment
Merely playing through on our way out
The sounds so sweet and majestic
And the melodious tune is heard by all
The passing is one that's so bittersweet
A time we knew would be here all too soon
We have played along with the band
But now our melody no longer lingers
We leave much the same way
Our silent screams often never heard
And the time between not mattering
We live but to praise the heavens
Knowing full well who sets the sun
Who lights the stars and the moon
The same breathes life into being
We are here but one brief moment
Merely playing through on our way out
The sounds so sweet and majestic
And the melodious tune is heard by all
The passing is one that's so bittersweet
A time we knew would be here all too soon
