One man, speaking the truth
No one likes when it fits
So we tell soothing lies
And betray our own lipsThe uncivilized world
And its people decay
One sweet breeze is defiled
Sucking our breath awayYesterdays answers
Has nothing to do
With todays questionsLife can only be understood
In reverse
But must be lived forwards
I'm losing my senses
I'm losing my sensesAnd we watch
As the living, all die
Contemplating if we should
Ever open our eyesIf all that we touch
Keeps turning to sand
We will cease to exist
Until the last living manYesterdays answers
Has nothing to do
With todays questionsLife can only be understood
In reverse
But must be lived forwardLife can only be understood
In reverse
But must be lived forward
I'm losing my sensesYesterdays answers
Has nothing to do
With todays questionsLife can only be understood
In reverse
But must be lived forwardLife can only be understood
In reverse
But must be lived forwards
