It all goes dark, in a matter of time
You’ll waste more, the harder you try
To fight, what nothing can escape
Not even millions of light years away

A flame can’t last for eternity
While burning resources constantly
A spark can switch on and off
All depending, on the odds
Even the stars, far in the sky
Eventually, they burn out and die
So wisely use your time
On worthiness in your eyes

Lightening wakes up the night
A fire burns warm and bright
Forever is only a comforting lie
Changes are in the universe
And death apart of each life

The more energy you put in
You’ll not receive back
You’ll just burn away the wax
Quicker and miss out on living
So smartly use what you’re given

A flame can’t last for eternity
While burning resources constantly
A spark can switch on and off
All depending, on the odds
Even the stars, far in the sky
Eventually, they burn out and die
So wisely use your time
On worthiness in your eyes

We take it all for granted
Wanting what we don’t have
Life always seems more bright
Dreaming up the future you idolize
Not dealing with what’s in sight

It’s easier to run, to lie, alright
Hide and play pretend tonight
It won’t stop the morning lights
Once there is only darkness left
You haven’t left the cycle yet

In time and space, even stars die
It’s never goodbye, just goodnight
