The Interplay of Life and Death

What will remain of us in a billion years
When the sun explodes
And there are no more fears
When we are dust in space
Who will remember then
And all the things we've done
And all the selfless men

Just a split-second, are we?
In the interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

Just a split-second, are we?
In the memory of astro-planes
A glimpse of eternity a grain
Just a split-second, are we?
In the interplay of life and death
A glimpse of eternity a breath

What will remain of us in a billion years
When the Cosmos overthrows
Is there laughter, are there tears?
Will there be a new life
That finds our trace somewhere
And asks who we have been
Will someone really care

Just a split-second, are we?
In the interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

Just a split-second, are we?
In the memory of astro-planes
A glimpse of eternity a grain
Just a split-second, are we?
In the interplay of life and death
A glimpse of eternity a breath

The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

What will remain of us in a future so far
Will it be lost everything that we are
What is the sense of it
When we leave no trace?
Is there a masterplan
Behind the depths of space?

The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
