The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives
the others die
and you always want a reason why.


But the world is neither just nor unjust.
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it.
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
and though going young,
so much undone,
is a tragedy for everyone.


It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing,
no unseen sign or untold truth in anything,
but living on in others, in memories and dreams,
is not enough,
you want everything,
another world where the sun always shines
and the birds always sing,
always sing.

It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things,
no special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings.
But living on in others, in memories and dreams,
is not enough
and it never is,
you always want so much more than this.


An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love,
a sweet mother down below and a just father above,
for living on in others, in memories and dreams,
is not enough,
you want everything,
another world
where the birds always sing,
another world
where the sun always shines,
another world
where nothing ever dies.
