It's now, and never again
Run it down or make your amends
All of your hours up to, and after, this hang on this moment
Is it fate or are you yours
Bear the weight and find your voice
This taste of existence, bookended by the void, how can we waste it
When it feels like time is an engine running wild in the night
Make more than dust of this light, and feast on ambrosia
Or dull in your wonted resign and watch as it leaves you behind
Do you feel from within or out
Hear the wind or your young heart pound
It's something so ancient and yet undeniably now, a fire still burning
Is it now, are you present here
Can you sing despite all your fear
This taste of existence is sweeter when you're near, so please don't waste it
And it feels like time is an engine running wild in the night...
Make more than dust of this light, and feast on ambrosia
Or dull in your wonted resign and watch as it leaves you behind
