The Test of Time

As long as we live
As long as we cry
One thing remains at our side
One thing that will never die

It's forever
Or so it seems
Impossibly wonderful
Yet full of horror

This one simple thing
Forever or not
Is with us now
Even as we fought

This is a battle
You never win
It's tests us all
With hardship and sin

Everything has an end
But it's up to us
Whether we break or bend
How we adjust

This thing
This one thing
Is so impossibly simple
But incredibly complex

But as you live
And as you die
Just remember
No one can survive
The test of time
