I lay alone here at night Feeling the cool breeze blow through the window Pondering ones existence and attributing meaning to it all I lay alone here at night thinking of what might of been past regrets re-writing personal history I lay alone here at night Peeking through the open slits in my blinds I see the stars that light the night sky Each one a solar system with planets and ecosystems all of their own I see the direction of time All the living beings that have trod here before me I see a universe 14 billion years in the making A planet so rich of life it as if the divine intended it that way I hear birds chirping dogs barking cars driving I see the inconsequential fight against time The fighters The lovers The winners The losers The rise and fall of nations the Ideaologies that cause seperation I see the greatness in man The innovation The kindness The progression The determination I lay alone here at night Yet I'm connected to everything and everyone who has, is or will have existed
