Can you hear the sound of people laughing Because they think they know it all? Where they've been and where they're going As if they themselves had written on the wall The assuredness that power and money give them Their fate decided by their parents' cash The crank that gives them temporary laughter By saying "Time flies but aero planes crash"
They can laugh off anything they can't relate to Until the day before the day they die When suddenly they long for past existence And claim the right to forever stay alive But all things in the present are outdated And everything must someday fade away Our actions are all transient and fated And tomorrow isn't just another day
Can you hear the sound of people crying Because once they thought they knew it all? And now their self-assurances are dying As time erodes the writing on the wall
Don't take everything for granted Exist as if the moment was your last Don't wait complacently for your future Don't live in memories of things gone past Live in awareness of the fact you're alive Enjoy it while you got it as the time goes by
