Gone... in the blink of an eye Gone... in the blink of an eye Are you frightened..., of what the future might hold? Are you paralyzed..., by what some prophet has told? You bottle it in..., ‘til you're ready to explode So you live in the moment..., but you carry the load Don't think about the day when it all could be..., Gone... in the blink of an eye Gone... in the blink of an eye You're left wondering where it all went wrong In a matter of minutes..., it could all be gone..., Gone in the blink of an eye Do you live for tomorrow..., but forget today? With so many around you..., you feel alone anyway You can't predict the future..., no matter how hard you pray Don't think about the day when it all could be..., Gone... in the blink of an eye Gone... in the blink of an eye You're left wondering where it all went wrong In a matter of minutes..., it could all be gone..., Gone in the blink of an eye No premonitions..., it's all completely unknown You can't decode the future..., there's no Rosetta Stone In a web you're entangled..., with no way back home Innocence is strangled..., reasons overthrown Do we all want to live forever? Do we all want eternal life? Who's frightened of dying? Who's frightened to live? Don't think about the day when it all could be..., Gone... in the blink of an eye Gone... in the blink of an eye You're left wondering where it all went wrong In a matter of minutes..., it could all be gone..., Gone in the blink of an eye Where did it all go wrong? In a matter of minutes..., it was all long gone..., Gone in the blink of an eye
