We Sing

Our time on earth is not enough
'fore we wither and we die
We get but just one glimpse of life
a speck in some gods eye

So we sing
La La La La La we sing
We sing
La La La La La we sing

The stars are far beyond our grasp 
one million years away
and all our plans will come to dust
we dream but cannot stay

So we sing

For its too beautiful
its awful and its wonderful
its dangerous and laughable
and we don't get to see how it ends

But we sing

The edges of the universe
these strings all tightly wound
are coiled within and resonate
in this miracle of sound

For we sing
