We are all lonely beings Lonely souls, a lonely mind Eternally seeking and searching For things we can never find A memory of smiles and laughter Washed away by the flood of sorrow And the sense of immortal solitude There was never a cheery tomorrow We're all going to fade away There'll be no one left to mourn us Our bodies, our lives, our legacies Will disappear into wind and dust Yet we still bother to create To sing, paint, dance and twirl To turn our cobwebs into gold All in hopes of a better world

Lonely Beings
We are all lonely beings Lonely souls, a lonely mind Eternally seeking and searching For things we can never find A memory of smiles and laughter Washed away by the flood of sorrow And the sense of immortal solitude There was never a cheery tomorrow We're all going to fade away There'll be no one left to mourn us Our bodies, our lives, our legacies Will disappear into wind and dust Yet we still bother to create To sing, paint, dance and twirl To turn our cobwebs into gold All in hopes of a better world
