The spirit carries on - Dream Theater

06 februari 2016
Nee natuurlijk geloof ik dat niet. Maar vandaag wil ik het even wél geloven.
If I die tomorrow I'd be alright because I believe
that after we're gone the spirit carries on

Where did we come from, why are we here
where do we go when we die
what lies beyond and what lay before
is anything certain in life

They say life is too short
the here and the now
and you're only given one shot
but could there be more
have I lived before
or could this be all that we've got

If I die tomorrow
I'd be all right because I believe
that after we're gone
the spirit carries on

I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
but that was before, I'm not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend

I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove what I know to be true
but I know that I still have to try

If I die tomorrow
I'd be alright because I believe
that after we're gone
the spirit carries on

Move on, be brave, don't weep at my grave
because I am no longer here
but please never let your memory of me disappear

Safe in the light that surrounds me
free of the fear and the pain
my questioning mind has helped me to find
the meaning in my life again
Victoria's real, I finally feel
at peace with the girl in my dreams
and now that I'm here it's perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means

If I die tomorrow
I'd be alright because I believe
that after we're gone
the spirit carries on
