The Half-Life of Hope

One man told me, with a tear, "God doesn't know me, I fear." He prayed and endured, year after year, Forgot why he prayed, and for whom, my dear! So listen. What you've done for others, you see, Made you who you are, eternally. Unseen by the world, your deeds so grand, Are you a particle, or a wave in the sand? Then A woman whispered, a secret she kept, "If you want life, use the light, it can bend." Let the mirror inside you decide, The system will work, you can't hide. What you've done for others, you see, Made you who you are, eternally. Unseen by the world, your deeds so grand, Are you a particle, or a wave in the sand? Oh, uh-uh-uh-oh! I radiate more than I take, To leave my mark, for goodness sake. I radiate more than I take, To leave my mark, for goodness sake. But to step forward, it's a challenge we face, Harder than falling, with grace. Unseen by the world, your deeds so grand, Are you a particle, or a wave in the sand?..
