Fade Away

Verse 1
Many days I try to understand
How the world can spin on no man's hand
And every time I close my eyes
It falls apart.
See the heart's always been no man's land
Every beat of ocean on the sand
Contemplates the nothingness of man
An illusion.

Bridge
So tell me why we've come around so many times
Without ever figuring out the reasons why

Chorus
Get up!
Make the world a better place.
Look up!
Stars aren't there to light your way!
Just breathe in life through everyday.
Some day your life will fade away

verse 2
See this pale blue dot of sea and sand?
We're a speck of things to heavens grand!
It doesn't need a saviour. It needs heart.
Make it easy for your fellow man.
Don't forget good will is in your hands!
Let your eyes behold the needs of man!
you're a heart.



Hook
And there's no need for fairy tales
In a universe of galaxies
That provokes the wonder of your heart
and asks you to believe in stars.

Chorus
Get up!
Make the world a better place.
Look up!
Stars aren't there to light your way!
Just breathe in life through everyday.
Some day your life will fade away

Some day your life will fade away
And you'll be gone with yesterday!
How many hearts will lift your name to the stars?
