1.
It goes away in the end It blows away in the wind Everything you know, everything you love will die
2.
Letting the air out of a balloon Letting go of a balloon on a cloudy day Puncturing a balloon with a sharp object Letting go of a balloon on a clear day... Letting go of a balloon... Watch it fade into the sky
3.
Regain Youth 03:16
Resources depleted, we can no longer stay here We must begin the search for a new frontier We'll look to the stars, find a blue world Loved ones will die, we'll stay young Traveling close to the speed of light
4.
Getting plenty of sleep will provide you with the strength you need My body is not at peak performance My eyesight is not what it once was My mind is working slower and slower My skin hangs loosely, draped over sagging shoulders Fading features flake away, peeling like rust and paint (Growing old) Bones break like brittle branches of fallen trees I will fall eventually without the strength to stand back up (takes a long time...)
5.
From this vantage I can see a vast distance My resolve will not break My commitment will not fade I have seen the result in my dreams, I have seen Tiny mirrors reflect a light I'd like to find the source of this light I've looked (I've looked) I've tried (for the) I've spent (source of) my time (this light) I'd like (I've tried) to find (to find) the source of (the source) I've tried I've tried I won't let this die I won't give up hope Not now, not ever From this vantage I can see a vast distance I can see
6.
How will we find our way back to this plane? Step beyond thresholds let yourself renew Leap beyond thresholds let yourself renew Feel your body dissipate, a castle made of sand Let yourself disintegrate Become environment Release yourself Release yourself Go home Even as you watch, I am fleeing I am fleeing Even as you watch
7.
Lost in the indifferent distance a place where darkness becomes a bright light Suspended falling, rest unbound With my eyes closed, I still see a splendid light For one brief, fleeting moment a great sense of calm
8.
Into the unknown, Into the blue I am not afraid Weightless Aimless Ageless I feel a great sense of relief I'm approaching the horizon without trepidation, without a second thought I have no fear, I have no doubt I am reaching Never Ending
