Nothing, Everything

Paradox is everything when searching for the truth
You look for black and white and find the grey
And things that filled your heart don't matter anymore
Yet nothing has really changed

Human souls are quite passe when talking about worth
It's obvious all cultures will agree
Life and happy routine are why we all draw breath
Perhaps there's so much more for us to see

In the eyes of the sky we're nothing but some dust
A drop in the arms of enfolding sea
A pebble in the fold of mountains unconcerned
One single lear in the tree

In the heart of heaven we are everything
The moon which tugs the tide
The wind that shapes the crest
I learned another friend had died
No warning, he's just gone
In thirty days no one will even talk about him

And it's like that for us all
We are nothing
A small imperfection on the flip side
Of a grain of salt
We are everything
The light that unthreads all our webs of doubt
Nothing, everything

In the heart of heaven we are everything
The sun which feeds the flower
The water that gives life
Paradox is everything when searching for the truth
We look for day, we look for life
We find the dawn
