It's taken me fifty thousand separate wrecks to get here
And I've learned, I've learned absolutely nothing
As I'm standing here alone, upright and motionless
And I'm drowning in her seaThe rising and sinking
Of every consciousness I've ever known
Now detached, disconnectedThe endless cycle of idea and action
Endless invention, endless experiment
Endless hope, endless disappointmentAnd I thought all I needed was just one breath to stay afloat
For me it was like, like the breath, the last breath
The last breath that I never wanted, any of thisI never thought that this would capsize
But this isn't a boat, it's a coffin
And now I'm moving forward
Into the sea, into the great seaSo I begin with the end in mind

So I begin with the end in mind
So I begin with the end in mindSo I begin with the end in mind

Twenty centuries gone by, come homeCycles of heaven, twenty centuries gone by
Twenty centuries gone by, come home
Cycles of heaven, twenty centuries gone by
Twenty centuries gone by, come homeThe end is coming like a flood
It's going to be a year for growing
And the greatest amount of forgettingMy sea is dying but death is a doorway
And at the very root of me I know this
And at the very root of me I know this, I know thisIt's the greatest reminder
What a broad world to roam in
What a sea to swim in, what a sea to swim inSo I begin with the end in mind
So I begin with the end in mind
So I begin with the end in mind
So I begin with the end in mindSo I begin with the end in mind
So I
