Verse 1:
Philosophers have pondered trough the ages,
Why do we struggle so, why do we strive
And how do we face the day, knowing that no matter what,
We’re not getting out of this alive.
You can’t dispute the logic that they use,
But there is another pathway you can choose.
Chorus:
Livin the dream, a life that is eternal,
in a city where the lambs the only light
Livin the dream, when death has been defeated,
and the father wipes the tears from our eyes.
Livin the dream
Verse 2:
It’s true this life is tainted with injustice,
one is born to privilege, one to poverty.
The meek inherit suffering, the wicked rule the earth,
there is no justice earthly eyes can see.
The truth of this cannot be denied,
If you think there’s nothing more to life than life.
Verse 3:
It’s hard to reconcile that there’s a God that loves,
when parents hear those awful words,
there’s nothing we can do.
And how can a loving God seem so far away,
that He doesn’t see the pain we’re going through
Days like these can shake you to the core,
If you think you’ve got one life and nothing more.
Bridge:
Maybe in 1,000 years we’ll look back on it all.
We’ll be surprised by all the things that we just can’t recall.
