What matters?

All your DV tapes, and your cameras
the bed that you slept in, and others
every single thing you left behind,
tell me who are you competing with this time?
what is it that really matters?

All your hard drives, your emails, and letters
all the things you thought, you bought, or gave us
where are you now and what is the time?
how does one take care, of all the things, you left behind
is it based on what we do over here with our lives?
hows it going over there, where, there is no time.

All the words you wrote
and the ones that you spoke
all the things you ate
or the hearts that you broke,
tell me who are you competing with
in this illusion of time?
everything you had is left behind...
no control, except what you take with your soul
So in the light of recent developments
what does really matter on this earth and in the heavens?

All your songs, all your melodies
all your dreams and all your qualities
the possibilities, all gone sublime
your smiles, your fear, your way of getting on the good side of people you revere
your aims and aspirations
and all the other things that you had
or wanted to be,
now can you see...
me?

all gone
that's what live on
when all is gone,
that is what that lives on

but hang on
all cant be gone
there must be something more that's living on
hang on
there must be something more that lives on?

your soul is living on
your soul is living on

what do you say to Him
when you stand over there?
how do you defend
or over come your fears,
how do we speak when once we're dead?
gone are all the good times you ever had?

but don't worry
you had your share
now its time to stare
pass over there.

enjoy the Sunday
the sunset was made for you
just stare away,
I stare with you.

another day

Now that some time has passed
when everything is telling you that nothing will last
Tell me how do you do, don't you feel like you use to
Isn't time that medicine to heal all your wounds
She wants to know how you feel?

Today
feels like It'll fly away
Hey
come back
another day.
Today
feels like you'll fly away
but Hey
come back
another day.

Its been many months since you left us
I took the train walked a lot flew the planes and rode the bus
Just like how you wanted it to be
Now is there anything else you'd like to show me?

Today
feels like It'll fly away
Hey
come back
another day
Today
feels like you'll fly away
Hey
come back
some other day.

Where are all those people
at the mosque or the church or the temple
Where are all those people
at the mosque or the synagogue or the steeple?

Now that some time has passed
when everything is telling you that nothing will last
Tell me how do you do, don't you feel like you use to
Isn't time that medicine to heal all your wounds
tell me just how you feel?

Today
feels like It'll fly away
Hey
come back
another day.
Today
feels like you'll fly away
but Hey
come back
some other day.
