Where did we come from?
\nWhy are we here?
\nWhere do we go when we die?
\nWhat lies beyond
\nAnd what lay before?
\nIs anything certain in life?<\/span><\/p>\n

They say ” Life is too short<\/em> ”
\n“The here and the now”
\nAnd ” You`re only given one shot<\/em> ”
\nBut could there be more
\nHave I lived before
\nOr could this be all that we`ve got?<\/span><\/p>\n

If I die tomorrow
\nI`d be alright
\nBecause I believe
\nThat after we`re gone
\nThe spirit carries on
\n<\/strong>
\nI used to be frightened of dying
\nI used to think death was the end
\nBut that was before
\nI`m not scared anymore
\nI know that my soul will transcend<\/span><\/p>\n

I may never find all the answers
\nI may never understand why
\nI may never prove
\nWhat I know to be true
\nBut I know that I still have to try<\/span><\/p>\n

If I die tomorrow
\nI`d be alright
\nBecause I believe
\nThat after we`re gone
\nThe spirit carries on
\n<\/strong>
\n“Move on, be brave
\nDon`t weep at my grave
\nBecause I`m no longer here
\nBut please never let
\nYour memories of me disappear”<\/span><\/p>\n

Safe in the light that surrounds me
\nFree of the fear and the pain
\nMy questioning mind
\nHas help me to find
\nThe meaning in my life again
\nVictoria`s real
\nI finally feel
\nAt peace with the girl in my dreams
\nAnd now that I`m here
\nIt`s perfectly clear
\nI found out what all of this means<\/span><\/p>\n

If I die tomorrow
\nI`d be alright
\nBecause I believe
\nThat after we`re gone
\nThe spirit carries on<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n
