LYRICS:

I hear you, little child
As tears run from your eyes
I swear to you it's alright
To be young and still be moved to cry

But in a year everybody's older
And it won't be long 'til I fade away
Every year the water's colder
But the ice keeps crumbling away

But can't you feel the cold wind blowing?
To freeze the glaciers of our kind?
To make your species last forever?
To eliminate our sense of time

She hears me simplify
No more tears, only sighs
With pity as her eyes meet mine
She says, "To be born, you picked a wrong time"

"In a year, everybody's older
And it won't be long 'til you fade away
But what you've told me will not matter
When you're the last human in the grave"

"A relic of a lesser being
Reminder of mortality
A fossil to see in some museum
Of some primitive entity"

Should have gotten to make your own decision
But I don't want to have to face your decision

Decision

LYRICS:

It's not a choice that I make
To live my life at the mercy
Of this artificial glee
Though I know it's no disease
I want to feel the warmth of
Your palm but I know soon I'll
Be numb and I won't need to
Feel touch or much of anything

And the turning point it comes
And the rationale it follows
The eternal pleading motto

Does God even notice? 
Am I too beneath his gaze?
Is anyone counting?
'Cause I've lost track years ago

Silver sun's swept under sea
I'm alive when I can't breathe

I feel the air of doors closing
All around me as they grin
Sickened smiles at sight of sin
To be without but not within
Chemical adultery
Crime that almost always pays
You never see the internal bleed
Of your soul's decrepit state

And the passion rush it comes
And the suffocation follows
And I rush into its swallow

There's got to be some way
My mother would understand
But I doubt that watching
Me drowning was something she'd have planned

Silver sun's swept under sea
I'm alive when I can't breathe
