3.THENATURE

"Surrender your soul, let the dice roll."
lyrics
Verse1

Eternal doubt
Endless route
A Song of Songs
That goes
round and round

Neverending story
That goes for so long
full of Empires falling
for the blood they spilled for glory

I wished upon a stars
Before the sky was glowing
Saw dinosaurs roaming
Witnessed planets forming

And since the Planck epoch
I can hear its echo
echo echo
I can hear its echo

Verse2

Once the dice rolled
It went on and on
on and on and
went on and on


was hot, got cold
spread up and down
went back and forth
on tiny pale blue rock

Floating in void
They sang songs of woe
songs of woe
They sang songs of woe

Once the dice rolled
It went on and on
on and on and
All they ignored

It went on and on
It went on and on
on and on and
on and on

on and on
on and on
on on on on (repeat)
