Only a Flash

All is a whirl in the world that surrounds us,
There’s but a flash, hold on fast to this light!
Only a flash – past and future around it,
And it’s this flash that we know as Life…

Eternal peace is not meant for the daring heart,
Eternal peace is for graveyards of ash,
But for a star, for a shooting and falling star,
There’s but a flash, such a brilliant flash…
But for a star, for a shooting and falling star,
There’s but a flash, such a brilliant flash…

Race on, the World, through the skies and the centuries,
But I must say, we might part in our ways,
I only love, only risk while adventuring
This flash of life – it’s the light of my days.

Happiness laughs, and misfortunes are frowning…
There’s but a flash, hold on fast to this light!
Only a flash, past and future around it,
And it’s this flash that we know as Life…
Only a flash, past and future around it,
And it’s this flash that we know as Life…
