I have often pondered the reason for existence We're here one day and gone the next, Just a whisker from disappearing, Is it really such a short distance? To be birthed and brought to death, To be made and broken, Created and destroyed, In a matter of moments I have often pondered the reason for existence, We're here one day and gone the next, Just a whisker from disappearing, Is it really such a short distance? But a moment can be all it takes, A heartbeat of a second, A kiss, innocent and chaste, A strike, cruel and vicious A tear shed by a lonely eye A moment can be all it takes, A heartbeat of a second, Faster than you can blink Quicker than a hummingbirds wings A moment to make your mark I have often pondered the reason for existence, We're here one day and gone the next, Just a whisker from disappearing, Is it really such a short distance? Bridged by the moments that define us. The reasons for existence?

The Reasons For Existence
I have often pondered the reason for existence We're here one day and gone the next, Just a whisker from disappearing, Is it really such a short distance? To be birthed and brought to death, To be made and broken, Created and destroyed, In a matter of moments I have often pondered the reason for existence, We're here one day and gone the next, Just a whisker from disappearing, Is it really such a short distance? But a moment can be all it takes, A heartbeat of a second, A kiss, innocent and chaste, A strike, cruel and vicious A tear shed by a lonely eye A moment can be all it takes, A heartbeat of a second, Faster than you can blink Quicker than a hummingbirds wings A moment to make your mark I have often pondered the reason for existence, We're here one day and gone the next, Just a whisker from disappearing, Is it really such a short distance? Bridged by the moments that define us. The reasons for existence?
