Life Substance #60 - The Being's "Eternal Life"

V5.5

[Verse 1] A straight and narrow line would be a cage, A static story on a frozen page. But we are travelers on a grander wheel, Where every shifting contrast makes it real. We trace a path that never truly ends, Through galaxies and time, the spiral bends. A cosmic staircase reaching through the night, The great Spiral Cycle of shadow and light. [Pre-Chorus] From primitive valleys where shadows are thrust, To high intellects built of logic and trust. We must know the winter to welcome the spring, For the friction of living is what makes us sing! [Chorus] Oh, Substance Sixty, the Eternal Life! The glorious rhythm of comfort and strife! The ever-changing pendulum of breath, The beautiful symphony of living and death! The mental light and the absolute dark, The well-being born from the suffering's mark! Upward we travel, through sorrow and grace, The spiral of life in the center of space! [Verse 2] You cannot know warmth if you’ve never been cold, Or treasure the new without mourning the old. Through deep, primitive shadows we have to descend, To learn how to love and to finally mend. The suffering carves out the depth of the soul, And well-being fills it to make us all whole. The pain is the chisel, the joy is the art, The heartbeat of God in the human heart! [Pre-Chorus] The tear and the triumph, the night and the day, Are simply the milestones that show us the way! [Chorus] Oh, Substance Sixty, the Eternal Life! The glorious rhythm of comfort and strife! The ever-changing pendulum of breath, The beautiful symphony of living and death! The mental light and the absolute dark, The well-being born from the suffering's mark! Upward we travel, through sorrow and grace, The spiral of life in the center of space! [Bridge] There is no final curtain, there is no decay! Just closing our eyes to awaken the day! Each lifetime a lesson, each death a release, A brilliant rotation from chaos to peace! The Spiral is endless, the journey is vast, And nothing is lost in the dust of the past! [Final Chorus] We are Substance Sixty! The Eternal Life! The glorious rhythm of comfort and strife! The ever-changing pendulum of breath, The beautiful symphony of living and death! The mental light and the absolute dark! The well-being born from the suffering's mark! Eternally rising, eternally free! The beautiful spiral of you and of me! [Outro] The light and the shadow... The joy and the pain... The eternal cycle... Begins once again. [End]
