lyrics
If life should prove to be
Just a lesson in how to decease
Don't ring the bell early
With disaster or disease
I need to learn it
My part in where I come from
The Great Empty Unknown
If awareness is a blinding light
In an endless unseeing night
Don't draw the curtain
Before I've had chance to see
I need to make certain
Of my part in where I come from
The Great Empty Unknown
Just a lesson in how to decease
Don't ring the bell early
With disaster or disease
I need to learn it
My part in where I come from
The Great Empty Unknown
If awareness is a blinding light
In an endless unseeing night
Don't draw the curtain
Before I've had chance to see
I need to make certain
Of my part in where I come from
The Great Empty Unknown
