Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I do not know the mind of God And I can not guess his thoughts But I have searched for you across the void When my sense of self was lost The answers danced to brush my grasp In the darkness and the pain And I saw myself for all I am Through decisions I have made With hearts immortal We stand before our lives A soul against oblivion Forever asking why This upside-down symphony In a paradox called life Are hearts immortal What you give to love Will never die And when my ashes scatter me With my memories to the wind What endures beyond the silent edge Is the essence found within Have we forgotten truly who we are And what our living means Our purpose lies in others' eyes And the realities that we bring With hearts immortal We stand before our lives (Stand before our lives) A soul against oblivion Forever asking why This upside-down symphony In a paradox called life (Stand before our lives) Are hearts immortal What you give to love Will never die All that I am and all that I dream Lives somewhere beyond your image of me And who I become and what I will be Is not yours to decide It comes only from me With hearts immortal We stand before our lives A soul against oblivion Forever asking why This upside down symphony Is a paradox called life Are hearts immortal What you give to love Will never die Will never die Will never die
